Commercial Circular No.j2. of 2015

Sub: Delegation of power to earmark/enhance Defence Deptt Quota to Zonal
Railways.

As per extant provisions, earmarking/enhancement of Defence Deptt Quota is done
by Ministry of Railways on receipt of requests on this account from Defence
authorities. Zonal Railways have however, been authorised to reduce Defence Deptt
Quota if the same is not being utilised as per extant norms.

2. It has been observed in past that whenever requests for enhancement of Defence
quota are received from Defence authorities, the same are forwarded to Zonal Railways for
their comments, which are then examined and decided upon in Board’s office. The
process is time consuming and involves duplicity of work.

3. In view of the above, it has been decided that the power of earmarking/enhancement
of Defence Department Quota be delegated to Zonal Railways concerned, who may be
allowed to do so on receipt of request from Defence Authorities, keeping in view the
following:-

(i) If the utilisation in general quota during the previous financial year has been more
than 90%, no DD quota should be earmarked.

(ii) If the utilisation is less than 90% during the previous financial year, the Railways
may take a decision to earmark Defence Deptt Quota in such a way that it should
not adversely affect the availability of general reservation quota.

(iii)A watch may be kept on the utilisation of Defence Deptt Quota and necessary
adjustments to be made as per following norms:-

Utilisation Yoage Action to be taken

Existing quota to be fully withdrawn.
between 10 & 30% Quota to be reduced by 50%.
more than 30%

4, Necessary instructions in this regard may be issued to all concerned.
