Railway Services (Conduct) Rules: RBE No.07/1989 – Acquisition/ Disposal of Buildings

No.E(D&A)88 GS1-17, dated 06.01.1989

Sub:   Railway Services (Conduct) Rules 1966 – Transactions relating to, acquisition/ disposal buildings (residential or otherwise) under sub-rule (2) of Rule 18 – submission of ‘building plans’.

Attention is invited to Railway Board’s letter No.E(D&A)76 GS1/2, dated 30.04.1976 relating to the form/ application to the prescribed authority for the building of or addition to house and form of report after completion  of the building or additions in a house. Attention is also invited to Railway Board’s letter No.E(D and A) 86 GS1-9, dated 08.10.1986 (RBE No.181/1986) under which forms for obtaining permission and or giving intimation in respect of transactions in immovable property under Rule 18(2) have been prescribed. It has now been decided that wherever there is a transaction involving acquisition or disposal of any building (residential or otherwise), including construction of a house/ building or effected additions thereto, the Railway servant concerned while reporting the transaction or seeking permission for the transaction under Rule 18(2) should submit ‘building plans’ showing the plinth area/ covered area of the building and/or addition to the building involved in the proposed transaction. It is considered that submission of such a ‘building plan’ would assist in assessing the approximate cost of construction etc. as  well as provide a record for a future check to ensure that the transaction is carried out through bonafide sources and with the permission/ knowledge as the case may be, of the Government.

The above instructions may be circulated to all Railway servants under your control.
