Para 13.4 — MSO (A&E)
Original Rule Text
13.4 As a general rule, payment of pay, leave salary and allowances of Gazetted Officers are arranged by the Accountant General either at treasuries (the authority being issued to the Accountant General concerned for authorising the T.O. in cases where the Treasury is not within the jurisdiction of the Accounts Officer) or through other Disbursing officers like Public Works/Forest Divisional Officers.
What This Means
As a general rule, the Accountant General arranges payment of pay, leave salary, and allowances for gazetted officers through treasuries or other disbursing officers like Public Works or Forest Divisional Officers. When the treasury is outside the AG's jurisdiction, the AG issues the necessary authority to the concerned Accounts Officer to authorize the Treasury Officer for payment.

Practical Example
A gazetted Forest Officer posted in District X falls under the AG of State A, but the treasury is in State B's jurisdiction. The AG of State A issues an authority to the AG of State B, who then authorizes the local Treasury Officer to make the pay and allowance payments to the officer.
