227. 228. 229. SECTION-II INSPECTIONS PROGRAMME OF INSPECTION For The Purpose Of Inspection All stations including Good Sheds/Sidings, City Booking Offices, CTI Offices, etc., are grouped into 'A' Class and 'B' Class according to the man- days allowed for the inspection. Stations, which require four man days and above for inspection have been classified as 'A' Class and others as 'B' Class(with 2 to 3 days scale time), JTBS, Post Offices etc,. are classified as 'C' Class(one day scale time) and Weigh Bridges are classified as 'D'(one day scale time). At certain railways where supply and replenishment of ticket stocks is centralized, a post of DCM(Buffer Stock), is provided to regulate requirements. SCHEDULE OF INSPECTIONS ‘A'class stations are required to be inspected once in every four months i.e., First Round- April to July, Second Round- August to November and Third Round-December to March. i.e. three inspections in a financial year. However it should be ensured that in each quarter's period few transaction of each quarter are covered in that inspection. 'B' Class stations are required to be inspected once in six months viz., half year ending 30th September & 31st March. i.e., two inspections ina financial year. 'C' class stations are required to be inspected every alternate month i.e., six inspections ina financial year. 'D' class stations are required to be inspected every month i.e., twelve inspections ina financial year. Train halts should be inspected along with the stations concerned. DCM Buffer Stock (as per practice prevailing on each individual Zonal Railway, like SCR) will be inspected once in every four months as 'A' class station. ORDER OF INSPECTIONS The section TIA is solely responsible for regulating the inspection of the stations in his/her section strictly in accordance with the scheduled programme and all possible efforts should be made to avoid arrears. TIAs, however, should arrange their visits to stations with due regard to economy of time spent in travelling. In the event of inspection ina section falling into arrears, office should be appraised well in advance for TE हल relief. Inspection of 'A' Class stations should take precedence over 'B' Class stations but JTBS, Post Offices etc,. Classified as 'C’ class must be inspected on every alternate month. Section TIAs should feel their responsibilities and always endeavor to keep the inspection work on their sections current. Inspection of 'B','C' and 'D'class stations should be strictly adhered to and in no case they should be surrendered by section TIAs. Inspectors should keep their programme confidential and the date on which it is proposed to visit a station should not be made known to the station staff. The broken and select period of inspection are the days which a TIA should consider for checking of complete transactions. The broken period is that 10 days' period which is not completed, and dates of this period which are checked by TIA are called broken days. The broken day's period would cover the day of reaching of TIA at that station for starting inspection and three preceding days. Ordinarily the inspection at any “A” class station should not be taken up by TIA, before 13,23 and 3rd day of any month. The select period of inspection is that period (01-10/11-20/21-31) which a TIA should consider for checking of transactions and the balance sheet of which is already submitted to Traffic Accounts Office. For purpose of select date, one date out of this select period will be considered. All transactions in broken and select period should be checked as 100% and 10% respectively, unless specifically mentioned in this manual. TIAs should confine themselves to the examination of the accounts and are prohibited from undertaking responsibility in connection with the compilations, collection of cash, issue of tickets or other allied works, which are recognised to be the legitimate duties of the Traffic/Commercial staff. 230.
