Sub: Inclusion of deceased Railway employee’s widow mother in the Privilege pass of the widow appointed on compassionate grounds. (ACS No.37).
1. In terms of para 3 of Board’s letter No.E(W)96 PS5-8/2, 24.07.2000 (RBE No.142/2000), dependent widow mother of a diseased Railway employee has been allowed to be included in the widow pass as a family member of the widow. However, when the widow gets appointed on the Railways on compassionate grounds, widow mother of the diseased Railway employee is not eligible for inclusion in the privilege pass of the widow Railway employee.

3. Rule 2(c) of Railway Servants (Pass) Rules, 1986, Second Edition – 1993, is accordingly amended as per Advance Correction Slip No.37 enclosed.
