General Concept of Transfers (IREC - 226) —
Ordinarily, a railway servant shall be employed throughout his service on the railway or railway establishment to which he is posted on first appointment and shall have no claim as of right for transfer to another railway or another establishment. In the exigencies of service, however, it shall be open to the President to transfer the railway servant to any other department or railway or railway establishment including a project in or out of India. In regard to Group C and Group D railway servants, the power of the President under this rule in respect of transfer, within India may be exercised by the General Manager or by a lower authority to whom the power may be re-delegated.
Railway Ministry’s decision.—Requests from railway servants in Groups C & D for transfer from one railway to another on grounds of special cases of hardships may be considered favourably by the railway administration. Such staff transferred at their request from one railway to another shall be placed below all existing confirmed and officiating staff in the relevant grade in the promotion group in the new establishment, irrespective of date of confirmation or length of officiating service of the transferred employees.
(Railway Ministry’s letter No. E. 55SR/6/6/3 dated 19th May, 1955).
- A competent authority may transfer a Railway servant from one post to another provided that, except:- (IREC - 227)
(1) On account of inefficiency or misbehavior, or
(2) On his written request,
A Railway servant shall not be transferred to, or except in a case or dual charge, appointed to officiate in a post carrying less pay than the pay of the post on which he holds a lien.
(Authority:- Railway Board’s letter No. E(NG)I-98/CN5/2 dt.5-2-99)
