Dear Sir,

Sub: Treatment of employees selected under LDCE Scheme/GDCE Scheme

Ref: Item No. 12,30 & 49 of the record of discussion of 3rd meeting of the Joint Committee on MACP held on 15th March, 2011

During 3rd meeting of the Joint Committee on MACP, held under the Chairmanship of Secretary €, DoP&T on 15th March. 2011, the following decisions have been taken:-
“The Staff Side demanded that the employees selected under the LDCE Scheme/GDCE Scheme should be treated as a direct recruit and their earlier promotions and services rendered should be ignored for the purpose of MACPs as was being done in the ACP Scheme. The Official Side informed that the treatment of such cases would generally be same in the MACP as was in the ACP Scheme. Ministry of Railways would be advised to examine the matter accordingly”.
In this connection, it may be pointed out that in terms of Railway Board’s letter No.PC/V/99/1/1/1/  dated 01.10.1999, it was already decided and benefit of ACP would be granted to the candidate selected through LDCE. The relevant portion of the instructions in this regard is cited below:-
“If the relevant Recruitment Rules provide for filling-up of vacancies of the Stenographer “D’/Jr. Stenographer by DR, induction of JR. Clerks to the aforesaid grade through LDCE may be treated as DR for the benefit under ACPs…”
The Board are requested to issue necessary clarification on the subject so that the employees selected under LDCE/GDCE Scheme are treated as Direct Recruitment and their promotion be ignored for the purpose of granting benefit under MACP Scheme.
Yours faithfully
(Rakhal Das Gupta)
Working President
