Speedy disposal of DAR cases for retiring Railway employees

  • Railway Board has observed that disciplinary cases are not being finalized within a reasonable time resulting in severe hardship to the railway servants especially the retired ones whose pensionary benefits are withheld due to the pending disciplinary case. 
  • Board instructed Zonal Railways to develop a mechanism to monitor the disciplinary cases so as to avoid unnecessary delay , both at Headquarter level and Division/Workshop level with special attention to the cases of the retired railway servants and those who are due to superannuate within one year. 
  • The cases which have not been finalized even after two years of issue of chargesheet should be reviewed immediately at sufficiently higher level at the Railway Headquarter and necessary guidelines be given to the concerned officers to finalise such cases immediately.
