Retention of railway accommodation at the previous place of posting in favour of officers/staff posted to Jammu-Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail link (USBRL) Project : RBE No. 47/2023
In general, railway employees are entitled to retain their railway accommodation at their previous place of posting for a specified period of time after they have been transferred to a new location. This is usually referred to as the “retention period.” The retention period is determined by the railway administration and can vary depending on various factors such as the employee’s rank, the distance between the previous and new place of posting, and the availability of railway accommodation at the new location. Railway Board has issued RBE No. 47/2023 to make reasonable relaxations in public interest for a class/group of employees in all or any of the provisions regarding house allotment/retention beyond 31.3.2023 on normal rent for a further period of one year i.e. up to 31.3.2024 or completion of the project, whichever is earlier.
