stations. However, the engagement of STBA on these categories of stations shall be
initially for a period of only one year.

of STBA shall be examined by the competent authority.

Zonal Railways can also engage STBA for specific shifts. The number of shifts and its
timings can be decided by zonal Railways keeping in view the local conditions.

At stations where the booking window is not attached to the on-duty SM/ ASM office so
that the supervision of concerned booking office cannot be done by the on-duty SM/
ASM, the STBA shall be engaged in only those shifts where supervisory railway staff
such as SS/SM/Booking or Reservation supervisor who are not engaged in ticket selling
duties, are already available. Afresh provision of posts/railway staff at stations for such

supervisory duties shall not be done for the purpose of engaging STBA.

STBA may also be engaged at those stations where the provision of UTS cum PRS has
been made. However, at such stations STBA shall only be engaged for unreserved
ticketing. The PRS shall be operated only by on-duty Station Master or bysupervisory
railway staff such as SS/SM/Booking or Reservation Supervisor, if already available on
the station, who are otherwise not engaged in ticket selling duties.
