RBE No.97/2014: GDCE – Treatment of unfilled vacancies
No.E(NG)I-2010/PM1/16, dated 10.09.2014
Sub: Inserting a General provision in IREM for diversion of unfilled vacancies to LDCE/GDCE or DR quota.
1. For the last couple of years, this Ministry has been receiving references from Railways to divert unfilled departmental vacancies to direct recruitment on the premise that either interested volunteers are not available or they do not fulfill educational or any other criteria.
2. Existing instructions, for a few categories, provide for adding promotion quota vacancies to Limited departmental competitive examination (LDCE) and unfilled LDCE vacancies to direct recruitment.
3. The matter has accordingly been considered as it has been decided that wherever the vacancies remain unfilled in Promotion Quota, the same may be carried forward to LDCE/GDCE, if any and unfilled vacancies of LDCE/GDCE may be carried forward to direct recruitment quota to next year/ next selection. In case there is no LDCE/GDC E for that post, the unfilled vacancies may be diverted to direct recruitment quota of the upcoming year.
4. A new para bearing number 229 is accordingly inserted in the Indian Railways Establishment Manual, Vol-I, 1989 (First Re-print Edition 2009) as a reflected in the ACS No.227 enclosed.
