Amendment No.09
Indian Railways Vigilance Manual 2018 

New Para 512.6 A has been inserted as below:-

The challenge before Vigilance organisation is to protect bonafide decisions from unnecessary harassment, so that a healthy environment is created in which upright officials can work fearlessly and corrupt officials are punished promptly.

Hence, Vigilance angle is not discernible in the following cases:

(a) Any bonafide commercial or operational decision aimed at promoting organizational interest/ease of doing business. The bonafide of the decision should be determined on the basis of the fact that overall organizational interest at the time of making such decision is established  under the prevailing circumstances and prescribed rules, regulations & instructions had been-folliowed in its implementation.

(b) Cases involving minor procedural flaws or operational/technical irregularities or administrative lapses without any malafide intention such as lack of supervision, negligence, lack of efficiency, failure to attain exemplary devotion to duty, insubordination, disobedience etc. Such irregularities have to be dealt with separately by administration as per its seriousness and impact on the organization.
