Sub: Rate of supply of electricity to Railway employees. 
 
 
In supersession of the Instructions issued by the Railway Board through 
their circular letter  No.79/Elect.I/150/2 dated 15/18.2.82 on the above subject, 
the issue of domestic electricity consumption rate applicable to Railway 
employees has been reconsidered by the Railway Board and decided that the 
Railway employees residing in the Railway colonies should be charged at the 
same rate as they would have paid if they had taken supply directly i.e. they will 
pay at the same rate as the residents of adjoining colonies are billed for 
electricity consumption for domestic purposes form the local supply authorities.  
These orders should be effective from 1.1.87. 
 
2. 
Railways should also analyse the problem of taking separate connection 
from colony to colony and wherever they find that taking of direct connection is 
feasible from practical and economic considerations, such works should be taken 
in hand on priority.  This should enable the employees to pay directly to the local 
supply authorities. 
 
3. 
The efforts to bring round the local supply authorities and State Electricity 
Boards to agree to charge energy consumed in Railway residential premises at 
their domestic tariffs should also continue. 
 
4. 
For new quarters wherever possible and practicable direct service 
connections from local supply authorities/Electricity Board lines should be 
arranged in a manner that the occupants can be billed individually and they can 
clear their electricity charges without coming to the Railway channel. 
 
5. 
This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry 
of Railways.
