CHAPTER  XXV
Rules for the Recognition of Service Associations of Railway Servants
 PART A
Rules for the recognition of Service Associations of gazetted railway servants
2501.
Government is prepared to accord official recognition to associations of its gazetted railway servants which comply with the
conditions set out below. 
2502.
The association must ordinarily consist of a distinct class of Gazetted Railway servants and must not be formed on  the basis of
any caste, tribe or religious denomination or of any group within or section of such caste, tribe or religious denomination.
2503.
Every gazetted Railway servant of the same class must be eligible for membership of the association.
2504.
No persons who are not gazetted railway servants of the class concerned shall be elected as members or office bearers of the
Association.
2505.
Representations from  such associations, whether made orally by deputation, or presented in writing may be received by 
Government officers notwithstanding  anything contained in the rules relating to the  submission of petitions by railway servants.
      
Provided that-
(a)
No representation or deputation will be received except in connection with a matter which is, or raises  questions which
are, of common interest to the class represented by the association; and
(b)
Nothing in these instructions affects the discretion the President, the Railway Board or any Officer of Government to
receive or not to receive a deputation from any association.
2506.
Recognition is accorded for the purpose of enabling the gazetted railway servants to communicate their needs to Government or
to Government officers, and it may be withdrawn by Government if an association adopts other methods of ventilating those
needs.

2507.
Government may require the regular submission for its information, of copies of the rules of the association and the annual
statement of its accounts and of lists of its members
2508.
Government may specify the channel through which representations from the association shall be  submitted and the authority
by whom deputations may be received.       
2509. 
 
The officer, who is empowered to grant leave to a gazetted railway servant will, so far as is possible, grant casual leave to a
gazetted railway servant who is a representative of a recognised association to attend duly constituted meetings of the
association. The grant of such leave will be subject to the exigencies of the service, of which the officer in question shall be the
sole judge.     
PART  B
Rules for the recognition of association of non-gazetted railway servants
2510.
Government is prepared to accord official recognition to associations of its industrial employees. The grant and continuance of
recognition rests in the discretion of Government, but recognition when granted will not be withdrawn without due cause and
without giving an opportunity, to the association to show cause against such withdrawal.
NOTE.—The term "industrial employees" includes railway servants.
2511.
Notwithstanding anything   contained in the rules relating to the submission of petitions by railway servants, representations
from recognised associations whether made orally by deputation, or presented in writing may be received by Government
officers, subject to the observance of Rule 2506 and to such further restrictions as may be imposed by a department of
Government in respect of representations which raise no question of  common interest to the class  represented by the
association.
2512.
Recognition will not ordinarily be granted or continued to any association unless it complies with the following conditions.—
(i)
it must consist of a distinct class of Railway servants and must not be formed on t
