My friend has been working in Kerala Government Civil Supplies Department as an LDC(PSC appointment) for the last two years and he has completed his probation. Now, he has to relieve this department to join the new department through PSC as a Village Extension Officer under Rural Devolopment Department of Kerala Government for which he has received the appointment letter stating that he has to undergo six months training in the trainig institute of the concerned department. It is learned that during training period he is entitle only for basic pay. My question is that, if he joins the new department by properly relieving from his parent department, whether his past serving be reckoned for pay and pension ? And, six months in the whether any service break will occur as the first new department is training period ? Please answer.....
