Entitlement of family of Railway Officers to travel in saloon when officer return by some other mode of transport
The extant provision in Railway Servants [Pass] Rules, 1986 [Second Edition, 1993] provide that if a Railway Servant in Group ‘A’ or ‘B’ is required to cut short his tour/or return to headquarters by air or by some other means of transport leaving behind his family, he may be allowed return journey pass of the same class as on privilege account for his family to enable them to return to the headquarters. In such situation if a Railway Officer had undertaken journey on duty in a saloon, the empty inspection carriage or saloon has to be hauled back to Headquarters of the Railway Servant.
2. The issue has been considered by Board and it has been decided that if a Railway Servant in Group ‘A’ or ‘B’, who has undertaken journey in inspection carriage/saloon alongwith his/her family, is required to cut short his tour/or return to headquarters by air or by some other means of transport leaving behind his family, the family of such Railway Servant be permitted to return to the headquarters in the same saloon. Accordingly, item No. [1] under the heading of ‘General Rules Relating to Duty Passes’ of Schedule I [Duty Pass] of Railway Servants [Pass] Rules, 1986 [Second Edition, 1993] may be amended as per Advance Correction Slip No. 60 enclosed.
3. This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.
