Mention of Adopted may not be made on Railway Pass/PTO
Arising out of a demand from a section of employees for doing away with practice of mentioning the word “adopted” on privilege pass/PTO in the case of adopted children of railway employees, the matter has been examined.
As per Railway Servants [Pass] Rules, 1986 [2nd edition, 1993], adopted child is at par with natural born child of a Railway Servant. In this connection attention is invited to Rule 2[A] and 3[i] of the Railway Servants [Pass] Rules, 1986 [2nd edition, 1993] which stipulate conditions regarding Pass /PTO facilities to the adopted child.
Since, the provisions do not stipulate mentioning the word “Adopted” before son or daughter on the Pass/PTO to be issued to a railway servant, the same should not be mentioned on the Pass/PTO.
All Zonal Railways/PUs, etc. may note for information and compliance.
