AP GO.No.199 Details
As per the AP G.O.Ms.No. 368, Dated:15-11-1994, AP Government have introduced the slab rates of compulsory premium towards APGLI Scheme for the State Government Employees. AP Govt have issued ‘AP G.O.Ms.No. 231, Dated: 28-06-2010’ orders for enhancement of compulsory A.P.G.L.I premium slab rates as per the Revised Pay Scales, 2010 (AP PRC 2010).
As per the AP Govt Orders G.O.Rt.No.83, Dated 07-01-2013, the Government have constituted a Committee to study the possibilities of simplification of procedures and efficient functioning of the Department to render quick service to the Policy holders.
The Committee has submitted a report to the Government, wherein it was recommended that “ under the present system, deduction from monthly salary starts from the date of second year. Government may consider covering the employees under the A.P. Government Life Insurance Scheme from the date of payment of his / her first monthly salary”.
The Director of Insurance has stated that as per the APGLI Fund Rule, an employee who is appointed under 10(a)(i)(1) of the General Rules for the State and Subordinate Services is eligible to get insured with Directorate of Insurance on completion of one year service.
This condition might have been relevant in the olden days where there were temporary appointments. Presently, almost all the appointments are made on regular basis mainly through A.P.P.S.C./D.S.C./Police recruitment board,
Hence, the existing condition of one year service for recovery of A.P.G.L.I. premium may not be applicable. Also, the condition of completion of one year service is denying the newly recruited employees from getting the benefit of risk coverage.
Further, the Director of Insurance has requested the Government to kindly issue necessary orders for effecting the A.P.G.L.I. premium recovery in the first month salary of the employee soon after he/she joins the Government service without the condition of (1) year service completion.
