Sub: Absorption of medically de-categorized staff of Railway Protection Force in Alternative posts.

1. In the RPF Chief’s conference held in Rail Bhawan on 31.08.1987, point was made that the medically de-categorized RPF staff are not being considered on some Railways/ Units for adoption in Alternative posts. This has been considered by the Board, who desire that medically de-categorized RPF staff may be first considered for absorption in ministerial posts in RPF, for which they may be medically fit. The Committee constituted for considering such alternative appointments shall include an officer of the Personnel Department. In case no suitable posts to so accommodate them in RPF department are available, they may be considered for absorption in alternative posts in other departments of the Railways within the framework of the provisions contained in Chapter XXVI of the Railway Indian Railway Establishment Manual.
2. Similarly when staff of other departments are medically de-categorized, then they will also be considered for absorption against suitable posts in their own department first and in case no post are available therein, against Ministerial posts in the RPF department, if such posts are available in that Department.
