Dear Sri Handa,
According to Central Govt. Rules, a govern servant working in a permanent post for NOT LESS THAN FIVE YEARS is eligible to get study leave to undergo a special course consisting of higher studies or specialized training in a professional or technical subject having a DIRECT OR CLOSE CONNECTION with the sphere of his/her duties or being capableย of widening his/her mind in a manner likely to improve his/her ability as a civil servant [Rule 50 (1) & (2)]
The leave sanctioning authority is the concerned Ministry/Department of Central Govt/Administrator or CAG.The maximum period of such leave is 36 Months.
In practice however, Directors or Heads of Institutes can grant such study leave.The candidate is entitled to get his/her salary during study leave. The incumbent has to execute a bond that on return after successful completion of the course he/she will work for that organization for a specific period of time or will pay certain prefixed amount of money if s/he leaves the organization before expiry of the bond period.In case one is a Central govt. staff, one can consult the CCS FR & SR for detailed explanation or Swamy's handbook for a brief account.
In case one is working in private sector, it depends upon the discretion of the authority. (Personally speaking, I joined a P.G.Teaching cum Research Hospital ofย renowned Private Organization as Librarian after doing B.Lib. Sc and within three years I got study leave (without pay) to undergo M.L.I.Sc. course)
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta
