3. The matter has been considered by the Board and it has been decided that the grade, allowances and perks like entitlement of pass and house for such doctors, will be maintained at their present level of posts. The facility of TADK, official vehicle & allotment of fresh house will be decided by GM of the Railway concerned taking into consideration the functionality of the clinical posts.

In case, however, such doctors apply for a change of quarter, normal rules of allotment would apply.
