No.AIRF/174 Dated: February 15, 2020
The Chairman,
Railway Board,
New Delhi
Dear Sir,
Sub: Closure of Railway Printing Presses
This issue of closure of Railway Printing Presses was seriously taken-up by the Recognized Federations during the course of discussions in the Special DC/JCM Meeting, held on 16th January, 2020, whereupon Hon’ble Minister for Railways commented as under:-
“The issue of Printing Press will be internally assessed and thereafter further discussed with both the Federations before a decision is taken”.
Moreover, your goodself were also agreed to review the issue.
Because nothing has been done by the Railway Board up-till now on this particular issue, General Managers of different Railways, where Printing Presses are situated, are going ahead with the policy of closure of Printing Presses.
It is, therefore, requested that, the General Managers of Northern Railway, South Central Railway, Central Railway, Eastern Railway and Southern Railway should immediately be directed to hold earlier decision of the Board not to close remaining 05 Printing Presses, and a meeting with both the Recognized Federations should be called to review the decision for coming to a final conclusion on the above subject matter.
This may please be treated as “Most Urgent”.
