Training: RBE No.171/1987 – Curtailment of Initial Training Period

No.E(NG)II/87/RR-1/21, dated 30.06.1987

Sub: Initial Training period for recruits in various categories.

In a few individual cases of certain trainees or groups of trainees recruited for different categories of Group ‘C’ posts, some of the Railway Administrations have approached the Board seeking approval for curtailment of the prescribed period of initial training for various reasons. The Board would like to point out that the initial period of training, wherever prescribed is an important pre-requisite to be successfully completed, before a trainee is absorbed in the post for which he has been recruited. Board have, therefore, decided that in no case should the initial period of training be curtailed. Railway Administrations may please ensure compliance with this direction of the Board.
