Sub: Recruitment to non-gazetted
posts on the railways – Adherence to prescribed qualification in
recruitment from open market regarding.
Attention is invited to instructions
contained in Board’s letter of even number dated 29/6/2006 which debar
acceptance of allied/related qualification in lieu of the qualification
prescribed by this Ministry and stipulates that candidate in possession
of the qualification possessed in line with the extant instructions may
only be considered for employment on the railways.
The above instructions were issued to
streamline the already perturbed system of open market recruitment,
wherein, candidates with similar qualification were being treated
differently by different recruiting agencies leading to the matter open
for litigation.
However, over a period of time it has
been observed that recruiting agencies are seeking clarification from
this Ministry on following accounts
(i) recognition of institutions;
(ii) recognition of courses from regulatory bodies, if any, or other nodal bodies;
(iii) whether the course is offered through regular/part-time/distance learning/Membership of Association;
(iv) duration of course; and
(v) Equivalence.
Referring each and every issue to the
nodal Departments/Ministries results in inordinate delay in finalizing
candidature of candidates which further results in more complications
viz. expiry of panels, candidates taking legal recourse etc.
Taking above things into consideration,
instructions contained in letter dated 29/6/2006 ibid have been reviewed
and it has been decided by the Board that empanelled candidates in
possession of prescribed qualification from institutions run by Central
Government/State Government/Bodies enacted by Act of Parliament or State
Legislatures or recognized by Central Government/State
GovernmentIBodies enacted by Act of Parliament or State Legislatures be
allowed to join without further going into the issue of recognition.
Validity or otherwise, of such recognition, if required, will be
confirmed by the concerned recruiting agency, contacting directly to the
BoardlUniversity or the Council as the case may be.
These guidelines do not affect in any way the instructions circulated vide letter No.E(NG)II12010IRR-l/17 dated 08/12/2011.
Cases decided otherwise in the past need not be re-opened.
Please acknowledge receipt.
