Duty Passes in favour of officers deputed for training in IIPA/ New Delhi

1.             The issue of retention of Duty Passes by Railway Officers who proceed on training has been examined in Board’s Office in consultation with Associate Finance and it has been decided that since Metal Pass /Duty Pass are issued to the officers for discharging their duties attached with the post, when such officers proceed on training they have to relinquish the charge of the post from which they proceed on training and therefore, they have to surrender the Metal Pass also. 

2.         In case there is requirement of the officer to undertake official journey during the period of training, he can be issued Duty Cheque Pass after obtaining approval of the competent authority. 

3.         This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Dte. of the Ministry of Railways.
