The administrative and other difficulties brought out by South Central & Southern Railways vide their letters, both dated 09.03.2021, have been examined in the light of clarifications issued by MoF vide their OMs cited under Ref.(ii) above and it has been decided to permit issuance of PPSC of the Calendar year 2020 to eligible Railway Servants for availing the Special Cash Package equivalent in lieu of AILTC.
