06 January 2010 No LTA for employee using car or taxi, say central govt :
However, the rule shall not be applicable to employees with a handicap or disability of self or dependent family member.
However, the government has relaxed the order for the physically handicap or disability of self or dependent family members who are unable to travel by authorised modes of transport and are compelled to undertake the journey by own car or private taxis.
Such employees will have to take a medical certificate from the competent authority, besides give an undertaking that the journey in authorised mode is not feasible and the same can be only covered in own car or taxi."
My query:
1. What kind of medical certificate suffice and who will be the competent authority to issue?
2. Who is to give the undertaking that the journey in authorized mode is not feasible and the same can be only covered in taxi?
