Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure(Government of India) has communicated revised classification of cities, towns and localities for the purpose of grant of Transport Allowance at higher rates to the Central Government Employees. But the Railway has not issued orders regarding that. That’s why AIRF has written a reference to Rly. Board regarding this.
