  1. Sir thanks for get it, simultaneously please clarify the following points also
    1. It is not clarified that , in our department only, there is a GDS Cadre. Our competent authorities are not sanctioning the latest order honorarium amount for GDS Rule 10 inquiries.
    2. One order by the Department of expenditure is that only Rs 4000/- honorarium for each financial year. If it is not revised than this order is not valid.
    kindly get it clarified above points from the Directorate.
