The State Government, for some time past, has been receiving appeals from both the Government-approved Part Time Teachers (PTTs) & Contractual Whole Time Teachers (CWTTs) in Government Colleges and Government-aided Colleges of West Bengal for allowing them to carry forward the annual medical leave, which currently gets lapsed at the end of each year.

After careful consideration of all the aspects of the matter, the undersigned is directed by the order of the Governor to say that the 1/2 average remuneration leave up to twenty days of the Government-approved Contractual Whole Time Teachers [as per G.O.
