No.E(G)84 EC-2-1, dated 29.07.1986

Sub:     Economy in administration and non-plan expenditure – ban on filling of posts on the Railways.

Reference instructions contained in Para 2(iv) of the Department of Railways (Railway Board)’s letter of even number dated 15.03.1984, as modified/ extended from time to time, regarding non-filling up of vacancies of ‘non-operational’ posts where recruitment action has not been taken.

On further consideration of the matter, the Department of Railways have now decided that vacancies of ‘non-operational’ posts arising due to promotion, retirement, death, resignation, dismissal/ removal or deputation may be filled up. This filling up is, however, subject to the provision that there are no staff available on the ‘Special Supernumerary Lists’ who can be re-deployed against such vacancies either directly or by suitable re-adjustment. In this connection, it may also be noted that instructions contained in para 2(4) of Board’s letter No.E(G)82 EC2-2, dated 12.07.1984 are kept in view and complied with.

This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Department of Railways, Railway Board.
