RBE No.06/2023 Service Record : Recording of Qualification in SR

No.E(NG)I-2016/IC-2/2 (Part), dated 05.01.2023
Sub: Recording of higher academic/ educational qualification in the service record of employees recruited though RRBs – clarification reg.

Ref: (1) Board’s letter no.E(NG)I-2016/IC-2/2, dated 07.12.2017 (RBE No.191/2017),
(2) Board’s letter no.E(NG)I-2016/IC-2/2, dated 19.01.2018 (RBE No.07/2018).

1. Attention is drawn to Board’s letter under reference dated 19.01.2018 (RBE No.07/2018) ibid which provides for recording of such educational qualification in the Service Records of a RRB recruited employee about which he had mentioned in his application form to RRB as an unfinished course.

2. One the Zonal Railways has raised doubts that the clause mentioned in the 1st para of Board’s letter dated 19.01.2018 (RBE No.07/2018) ibid, is an additional condition not actually stipulated in Board’s earlier letter dated 07.12.2017 (RBE No.191/2017) ibid on the subject.

3. The matter has been examined. It is clarified that clause mentioned in 1st para of Board’s letter dated 19.01.2018 (RBE No.07/2018) ibid may be read as ‘about which he had not mentioned in his application form to RRB’ instead of ‘about which he had mentioned in his application form to RRB as an unfinished course’. Other provisions will remain unchanged.

4. This disposes off Eastern Railway’s letter no.E.182/0/Vol.III, dated 29.10.2018.
