Deputation: Tenure & Repatriation

No.E(NG)I/2024/DP/07, dated 14.08.2024

Sub: Tenure of deputation of non-gazetted Railway employees with Railway PSUs/Organization.

1. In light of the numerous requests from PSUs under the ministry’s administrative control for extending the deputation tenure of non-gazetted railway staff beyond the fifth year, the ministry has conducted a review of the policy on this matter.

2. It is once again reiterated that cases for extension in tenure of deputation beyond five (05) years should not be sent by the Railway PSUs/Organizations in the normal course and existing instructions regarding monitoring of tenure, planning of replacements etc. should be scrupulously followed. It may also be ensured that concerned non-gazetted railway employee after completion of his sanctioned tenure of five years should invariably be repatriated on the due date.

3. Further, Zonal Railway & PU’s are advised to keep a track of non-gazetted staff who are completing 05 years on deputation and pursue relieving with concerned unit on completion of 05 years. NOC for extension should not be granted liberally by the Zonal Railway.
