OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject: Revision in the rates of Cycle (Maintenance) Allowance under SR-25.
No. 25/1/2020-FD(PIC): The undersigned is directed to say that consequent upon the introduction of the Manipur Services (Revised Pay) Rules 2019, the Governor of Manipur is pleased to revise the rate of Cycle (Maintenance) Allowance from Rs. 60/- per month to Rs. 120/- per month with effect from 01/04/2020 subject to the following conditions:
(a) The official concerned maintains and uses his own cycle for official journeys within a radius of 8 kms from the usual place of duty.
(b) The allowance will not be admissible for the calendar month(s) wholly covered by leave, training or temporary transfer.
(c) For any period of more than one month at a time during which a Government servant in receipt of Cycle (Maintenance) Allowance does not maintain a cycle or the cycle maintained by him, remains out of order or is not used for official journeys for any other reason, the Cycle (Maintenance) Allowance will not be admissible.
(d) The Cycle (Maintenance) Allowance under these orders shall be granted by the sanctioning authority for a period not exceeding two years at a time and its continuance shall be reviewed sufficiently in advance of the expiry of such period. The sanctioning authority may, for this purpose, specify whenever necessary the local jurisdiction of a Government servant at the time of sanctioning the allowance. They should also make a review of the posts under their control and decide the posts for which the Cycle (Maintenance) Allowance should be sanctioned. The Allowance may be sanctioned with reference to the posts and not to the individual incumbents.
