    Kindly advice. In case of an Officer who was posted as example goes at Kochi initially, thereafter proceed to Vizag on Pmt Transfer and left his family at Kochi for the academic session. Later he was transferred to Portblair again on Pmt Transfer post 01 year at Vizag, however the officer continued to retain accommodation at Kochi and did not shift to Vizag. Now he wants to claim additional HRA but his family never moved with him to Vizag. Will he be eligible for additional HRA despite rules being very clear that it is applicable for the previous duty station only, where as in the instant case his family continues to be at previous to Previous duty station. Very true and live example
