RBE No. 03/1985: Recruitment – Offer of Alternative Appointment
No.E(NG)II/84/RSC/109, dated 04.01.1985
Sub: Offer of alternative appointment to the medically unfit direct recruits.
Ref: Board’s letter No.E(NG)III-79 RSC 63, dated 23.11.1979.
A question has been raised as to whether a candidate who has qualified for the post of ASM and declared medically unfit can be offered alternative appointment in any other category.
It is clarified that the question of alternative appointment does not arise in such cases, as separate examinations are held exclusively for the recruitment of ASMs. Alternative appointment can be offered only in those categories for which common examination is held that too on the basis of their position in the combined merit list.
It is also clarified that the orders contained in the Board’s letter referred to above would mutatis-mutandis apply in respect of alternative appointment to Traffic/ Commercial Apprentices, Guards, Clerks Gr-I, Senior Clerks and Enquiry and Reservation Clerks, for whom a separate common examination is held.
