Indian Railway Catering & Tourism Corporation Ltd. (IRCTC) has launched online booking of retiring rooms at railway stations to facilitate passengers with a new channel, in addition to the existing one of manual booking at stations. Any railway passenger with a PNR of a confirmed or Reservation Against Cancellation (RAC) ticket can make an online booking of a retiring room. The ticket may either be a ticket issued at a counter or an e-ticket. The booking can be made for all passengers in the ticket, as per a release.

This facility of online booking is launched both in the IRCTC’s tourism website www.railtourismindia.com, and e-ticketing website www.irctc.co.in. No registration or login ID is required for availing of this facility. Online booking is available throughout the day, except from 2330-0030 hrs.

A retiring room in the form of a single/double-bedded rooms or even a bed in a dormitory can be booked through the new facility. A retiring room or a dormitory bed can be booked for 12-48 hours. A retiring room can be booked at both the originating and destination stations of a journey.

On filling in the PNR no., name of the passenger and the station name (where the booking is required) in the system, one will have to make payment through net banking or credit/debit card. The system will generate an Electronic Reservation Slip (ERS) as a confirmation of the booking. The passenger will need to carry the ERS during the journey.

For up to 24 hrs of occupying the retiring room, a service charge of Rs 20 will be levied, while for more than 24 hrs up to 48 hrs, Rs 40 will be the applicable service charge. For a dormitory bed, Rs ten will be charged for up to 24 hrs, while for more duration, Rs 20 will be applicable.

Presently, the online booking service is available only for the retiring rooms at Mumbai Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus station. Gradually the facility will be extended for other major stations at metro cities, tourist places and other important places.

Determination of date of increment after expiry of duration of penalties


RBE No. 9/2014
GOVERNMENT OF INDIA
MINISTRY OF RAILWAYS
(RAILWAY BOARD)
No. E(D&A) 2008 RG6-36
New Delhi, 15/01/2014
The General Marlager(P)
All Indian Railways and
Production Units etc.
(As per standard list).

Sub: Determination of date of increment after expiry of duration of penalties of withholding of increments/ reduction to lower stage imposed for less than a year regarding.

Ministry of Railways have received a few references regarding certain penalties of rule 6 of Railway Servants (Discipline And Appeal) Rules, 1968 which are having pay element imposed for less than a year. In one case, the penalty of withholding of increments was imposed on 24.3.2008 for a period of six months with cumulative effect and in the other case the penalty of reduction to lower stage was imposed on 9.2.2009 for a period of six months with non-cumulative effect.

2. The question of date of release of increment in the above cases on expiry of the penalty, in the context of fixing of 1st July as the date of increment uniformally for all Government servants following VIth CPC, has been examined in consultation with the Department of Personnel & Training. It is advised that fixing of 1st July as the date of increment for all Government servants under the Revised Pay Rules following the acceptance of the recommendation of the IVth CPC, is relevant, only in respect of Annual increment. This provision is not applicable where the increment is withheld as a measure of penalty. In cases where the increment is withheld as a penalty for a specified period restoration of the withheld increment would be at the end of the currency of the penalty and not postponed to the next 1st July. The person concerned may even be entitled to the next increment on the 1st July following the expiry of the currency of the penalty, (notwithstanding the fact that the penalty imposed on him was having postponing effect on his future increments), if he has net qualifying service of six months prior to the relevant 1st July.

3.  Likewise, where the penalty of reduction to lower stage was imposed, the pay will be restored immediately on expiry of the currency of the penalty. In so far as release of next increment is concerned, the same may also be allowed immediately on restoration if the person concerned has rendered net qualifying service of six month on the 1st July preceding the date of the expiry of the currency of the penalty.
