Temperory duty

sir
working in central govt. I had to go to temp.duty by Air India flight economy class at 10 A.M. Due to traffic Jam I was late by 2 minutes and therefore could not get the boarding pass. A new ticket had to be purchased for another flight at 1 P.M on the same date. Thus I lost around Rs. 5500/- on the old ticket as no amount was refunded. Can I get this amount reimbursed from the govt. as I was going for temp. duty and the flight was missed because of Traffic jam.
Pl. let me know the authority/Rules thanks

cancellation charges are reimbursed only if the tour is cancelled.

How can you charge from department for two tickets / fare for one side journey?

Your department / Airlines was not at fault for your delay.
