Misuse of LTC to NER by cash back scheme of travel agents

All Indian Central Govt Group A and B employee with family can travel to northeast region by Air on LTC. Many travel agency using this opportunity to make benefit by enrolling the central government employees to various travel package.

Travel agency can arrange you free lodging, traveling and food on same LTC. Many travel agents are also offering cash back package in hidden form.

Central Government employee should avoid this money cash back scheme, as this can bring you trouble in future.Government intention is to make people travel in north east region, but if you use this opportunity for making money by cash back scheme, it will be treated as forgery.

Here is a sample from a travel website on the cash back offer

"I am group A employee. My question is if for example i plan to go to gangtok and darjeeling, is there any package tour that is available that include both travel and accomodation but the money can be claimed under LTC. I know i can claim the air fare money using LTC. I do not want to pay for accomodation and was wondering if some package deal (under LTC) will cover the accomodation charges.
