Text of the circular

GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF RAILWAYS (RAILWAY BOARD)

No. E (NG)II/2009/RC-2/5 List New Delhi, Dt. 27.08.2009

The General Manager (P) All Zonal Railways/PUs.

Chairman/RRBs.

Sub:

Reservation of jobs for Physically Handicapped persons in Group ‘C’ & ‘D’ categories- Lists of posts identified suitable for them.

Attention is invited to this Ministry’s letter number E(NG)II/2006/LG-5/4 dated

7.03.2008, circulating therewith the department-wise lists of posts identified suitable for Physically Handicapped persons in Group ‘C’ & ‘D’ categories on the Railways. This list of posts was based on the list circulated by M/o Social Justice & Empowerment (MOSJ&E), vide their notification No. 16-25/99.NI.I dated 31.5.2001.

Superseding their list ibid, MOSJ&E have come out with another list in detail, vide their notifications No. 16-70/2004-DDIII dated 18.1.2007, 15.3.2007 and 22.3.2007, to give effect to 3% reservation to the persons with disabilities.

Accordingly, based on the above, department-wise posts suitable for persons with disabilities, is enclosed for information and strict compliance. This list is not exhaustive and Railway administrations are free to identify more posts (not included in the enclosed list) locally, so that more persons with disabilities can be provided employment opportunities on the Railways. The list is provisional, since this Ministry has approached MOSJ&E for requisite exemption of certain categories/posts, from the purview of identified categories. The final list shall, therefore, be issued after finalization/disposal of the matter by MOSJ&E.

While undertaking recruitments, the provisions of the Persons with Disabilities Act, 1995, may be scrupulously followed, i.e. posts should be reserved for disabled persons on the basis of computation done taking into account the total number of vacancies arising both in identified and unidentified posts. It would not suffice by merely mentioning that post (s) is/ are suitable for disabled persons. Clear break-up of vacancies among the various categories of disabilities, would also need to be indicated in the indents/notifications issued.

Please acknowledge receipt.
