1. In terms of existing instructions, Railway employees holding sensitive posts, and who frequently come into contact with public and/or contractors/suppliers are required to be transferred every four years. A comprehensive list of the sensitive posts for the purpose of periodical transfer was drawn by the Ministry of Railways and circulated to the Railways under their letter No.E(NG)I/87/TR/34/NFIR/JCM/DC, dated 27.09.1989 (RBE No. 244/1989).

Board desire that Railways should take immediate action to implement this order.

3. A report on the action taken should be sent to the Board by 15.07.1996.
