Sub: Recruitment to Group ‘D’ (Class IV) posts minimum educational qualifications.

Ref:  Railway Board’s letter No.E(NG)II/84/RR1/26, dated 16.08.1985 (RBE No.238/1985) and 31.03.1986 (RBE No.65/1986) and No.E(NG)II/86/RC1/1/Policy, dated 25.03.1986 (RBE No.66/1986).

The question of minimum educational qualifications for recruitment to Group ‘D’ (Class IV) posts laid down in Board’s letter of even number dated 16.08.1985 (RBE No.238/1985) has been reviewed with recognised Labour Federations in PNM/DC meetings with the Railway Board.

Pending a final decision on the issue, Railway Board desire that the revised minimum educational qualifications laid down in Board’s letter of 16.08.1985 (RBE No.238/1985) be held in abeyance. The position will be reviewed as soon as a final decision on this issue is taken or after one year, whichever is earlier.
