Master circular 49 on Retention of Railway quarters At present instructions/orders regarding allotment of quarters and/or retention thereof, in the event of transfer from one station to another are contained in a number of letters issued by this Ministry from time to time. It has been decided to consolidate all of them in one single Master Circular, for the purpose of facility and convenience. 2.1 One of the benefits to which the Railway employees are entitled is provision of residential accommodation, on payment of a standard rent, which is at subsidised rates. As per extant policy, separate pools of allotment are maintained for essential and non-essential staff. Actual classification as per local condition has been left to the discretion of Zonal Railway Administrations. While doing so, the Zonal Railways Administration is required to keep in mind the need for special consideration in respect of certain classes of Railway staff, for instance, women and Harijan employees, who for traditional reasons, require special protection in the matter of residential accommodation. They need special dispensation particularly when employed at small stations, where adequate housing facilities do not otherwise exist. [Ref: No. E(G)57 LG 5-1 dated 21.02.1958] 2.2 If, in any case, a quarter belonging to a particular pool is allotted to the eligible dependent of an employee working in a different department, thereby causing a shortfall in the quota of quarter in that pool, the deficiency so caused in that pool of quarters should be made good at the earliest available opportunity, in order that the balance is restored at the earliest. [Ref : No. E(G)85 QR 1-14 dated 18.08.1986 (RBE 141/1986)] 2.3 Allotment of quarters to gazetted and non-gazetted staff, where two employees of opposite sexes in occupation of two separate quarters at the same station, allotted under normal rules, marry one another, shall be regulated as under: - a.No Railway employee (Gazetted or non-gazetted), shall be allotted a railway quarter if the spouse has already been allotted a quarter at the same station, unless such quarter is surrendered. This will, however, not apply where the husband and wife are residing separately in pursuance of an order of judicial separation made by any court. b.Where two employees in occupation of separate quarters at the same station allotted under railway rules, marry one another, they will, within one month of the marriage surrender one of the residences. c.Where two employees (husband, and wife) are in occupation of separate residences at the same station, one allotted under Railway Rules and another from a different pool on account of the allottee being an employee of another Government Department, any one of them shall surrender his/her residence within one month of the marriage. d.If a residence is not surrendered as required under (b) or (c) above, the allotment of the Railway residence shall be deemed to have been cancelled on the expiry of such period. e.In the event of either of the two employees (husband & wife) being transferred to another station, he/she (as the case may be), shall be entitled for allotment of Railway quarter under the relevant rules, [Ref. No. E(G)66 QR 1-44 dated 02.07.1974] 3.1 Out of turn allotment, wherever conceded, should be done strictly on the basis of date of registration in the out of turn register to be maintained for the purposes. Placing of an employee in the out of turn list, however, is left to the discretion of the competent authority, based on merits of each case. 3.2 Requests from the handicapped persons appointed on the Railways under special schemes should also be entertained for registration in the out of turn register on merits of each case, with due regard to the degree of their disability. [Ref. No. E(G)66 QR 1-21 dated 12.10.1966] 3.3 Heart ailment, having the following symptoms, should be included for ad-hoc allotment on medical ground
