REESE

The retired Railway servants are paid TA/DA for journeys undertaken by them
for attending departmental inquiries as Defence Assistant in terms of the codal
provisions/ instructions issued by Board’s Office from time to time.

2. It has now been decided to reiterate the existing guidelines in this regard.
Accordingly, the following guidelines are being reiterated for strict compliance:

Rule 1668 (5) of IREC Vol-II: "Where a person who has been a Railway servant
but has ceased to be so, is called to give evidence as to facts which might or might not
have come to his knowledge in the discharge of his duties, or a person who is not a
servant of the Union, is called to give evidence before any authority holding a

.,departmental enquiry, such a person shall be entitled to claim from the Ministry or
Department or office under whom the railway servant against whom the inquiry is being
held is for the time being serving, travelling allowance under Rule 1696”.

Rule 1668 (7) of IREC Vol-II: “The foregoing instructions shall also apply to a
person assisting the Railway servant against whom the inquiry is held in presenting his
case, Such a person shall be granted a certificate «0... by the authority
holding the departmental inquiry”.

3, It is further clarified that the payment of TA/DA and Contingent Charges, in
case of Defence Helper, are to be sanctioned by the Authority under whom the Railway
servant against whom the inquiry is being held is for the time being serving and not by
the Authority from where the Railway employee acting as Defence Helper had retired.

4. Kindly acknowledge receipt. CH
