What This Means
This is the formal closing paragraph of the circular, stating that it is issued with the approval of the Competent Authority — a standard phrase indicating that the circular has proper administrative sanction at the ministerial level before it was issued. The signing officer is Hari Krishan Bhatt, Deputy Secretary to the Government of India, who issues the circular on behalf of the Cabinet Secretariat.
The circular is addressed to all Secretaries of Ministries and Departments of the Government of India. It is also copied to DoPT (the department responsible for service rules and office procedures), the National Archives, and relevant coordinating offices for information and follow-up action. This closing ensures formal accountability — the issuing officer, the date, and the addressees are all on record.
