Sub: School Pass Permitting student wards of Railway employees on Rajdhani/ Shatabdi Express trains.

1.     In terms of provision under Schedule-III of Railway Servants (Pass) Rules, 1986 (2^nd Edition, 1993) eligible student son/ daughter of Railway employees are granted 3 sets or 6 half sets of Schools Passes in a year. These passes at present are not valid for journey in the Rajdhani/ Shatabdi Express trains.

2.     The issue regarding making School Pass valid for journey in Rajdhani/ Shatabdi Express trains has been considered by Board and it has now been decided that School Pass issued to eligible son/ daughter of Railway employees may be made valid for journey on Rajdhani/ Shatabdi Express trains, subject to the normal ‘Pass Quota’. The condition of entitlement shall be as on privilege pass of Railway employees.

3.     An endorsement as “Valid for journey in the entitled class of Rajdhani/ Shatabdi Express trains” shall be made on the School Pass by the Pass issuing authority.

4.     This issues with the concurrence of Finance and Commercial Directorates of Ministry of Railways.
