* **Power to Relax:** The Government can relax the provisions of the Rules, after recording the reasons in writing and consulting with the UPSC.

* **Probation Period:** Direct recruits are subject to a two-year probation period.
* **Recruitment Method Breakdown:** 33% of the posts are filled by promotion and 67% by direct recruitment.
* **Promotion Criteria:** Assistant Archaeologists in Level 6 (Rs. 35400-112400) with five years of regular service are eligible for promotion.
