RBE No.36/2017: LDCE and Intermediate Apprentice Quota selection

No.E(NG)I-2016/PM7/1, dated 21.04.2017

Sub: Inordinate delay in conducting LDCE and Intermediate Apprentice Quota selection on Zonal Railways.

The Zonal Railway Administration are aware of the fact that selection is the process of screening eligible employees for filling up Posts which have been classified Selection Posts by Railway Board. Selections are to be conducted annually in a regular manner by a duly constituted Selection Board. Extent instructions also provide that next selection can be initiated after a minimum time gap of 6 months from the date of last selection, if situation so warrant. For this, a calendar of selection is to be maintained by every Railway Administration for smooth functioning.

In spite of clear instructions, cases have been brought to the notice of Board where it has been stated that LDCE and Intermediate Apprentice Quota selection s are not held timely, causing undue hardship to staff. This issue has also been raised by NFIR in the PNM forum.

In view of above, it is hereby directed that all the selection, including LDCE and Intermediate Apprentice quota may be conducted timely, so that staff are not deprived of timely promotion.
