Dear Sir,

Sub:  Inclusion of name of unmarried sister as dependent in Complimentary

                    Passes



It is really surprising that as long as a Railway employee is in service, his/her

unmarried sister is considered as his/her dependant. But the same facility is

withdrawn as soon as he/she retires from Railway service.



 We do not understand the logic behind such system. When an employee is out

of service and has to depend upon his/her pension, only then unmarried sister is

denied of the facility which she had been enjoying so long.  This needs to be

modified.



Hope, Railway Board will examine the pros and cons of the grievances of the

retired Railway employees and modify the said rules so that they may not be

deprived of the existing facility after their retirement.
