This condition might have been relevant in the olden days where there were temporary appointments. Presently, almost all the appointments are made on regular basis mainly through A.P.P.S.C./D.S.C./Police recruitment board, Hence, the existing condition of one year service for recovery of A.P.G.L.I. premium may not be applicable. Also, the condition of completion of one year service is denying the newly recruited employees from getting the benefit of risk coverage.
