This Volume was earlier released in the year 1969. Over the years, several new services were framed and consequently new rules introduced. So, this Department considered it absolute necessary to update the Statutory Manual by constituting a Committee with experts who were senior retired officials of the Personnel and Administrative Reforms Department and for them to be assisted by key officials of the Department. After a massive effort involving all Departments, the Personnel and Administrative Reforms (S) Department has now updated the Manual with the Assistance of Committee Members, Officers of this Department, all other Departments of Secretariat and the respective Heads of Department. Taking into consideration the massive contribution and involvement of the team in Personnel and Administrative Reforms Department that made this possible, it is fitting to place their names on record in appreciation of the good work done. The above Volume is also available in the Tamil Nadu Government Website in electronic form and will be updated online as and when changes or alterations happen. Fort. St. George, P.W.C.
