    Railway Board is taking decisions unilaterally, irrespective of other central government civil employees, while its retired employees are occupying the seats of Managing Committees of Central Government Pensioners’ Associations at different cities. Railway Board may allow financial assistance/grant-in-aid for formation of Association of retired railway employees and direct its retired employees/officers not to venture anywhere beyond railway facilities. Is it not a Shameful act on the part of Railway Board????

  • sad to hear it. A very controversial policy between the government and its people. We just pray the best. Hopefully given a way out so that all can feel the benefits.
