(a) The list of categories on which the Railways can start the process of rightsizing subject to proper review being undertaken (Annexure-I);
(b) Directives issued vide Board’s letter of even number dated 17.01.2003 (RBE No. 16/2003) i.e. the fresh recruitment is to be limited to 1/3rd of the retirements (normal and voluntary), has to be followed in letter and spirit which is applicable to all Group ‘C’ & ‘D’ staff. The details of the intake should be furnished on a quarterly basis from the month of April, 2006 as per the proforma attached as Annexure II. This includes the recent indents placed for recruiting Group ‘D’ posts; and
