Off hours

The Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) has advised all ministries and departments of the central government to post "working hours, holidays list and public dealing hours" on the home page of their websites. The DoPT, in its advisory issued on November 5, stated that the posting of "working hours" on the websites of Indian government is to provide "information to citizens staying/residing abroad". It claimed to have already posted working hours on its website persmin.nic.in. However, the home page didn't seem to have registered the change, at least until Monday afternoon.
