One think I should pray to be muted, that All railway employee starting their carrer as Loco Running Staff (Initial AppointEither Assistant Driver or Goods Guard) should get retirement/ terminal benefit as a Running staff ( i.e. 55% pensionery benefit) because many of us could not complete their carrer as Running staff either for physical ground (they only get 30% benefit , but not retirement benefit) or many other ground. Even some cases they have to switch to other category without any benefit. So, there should be a uniform rule, that those enter in Railway (Initial Appointment) should be treated as beneficiary of Retirment benefit as running staff irrespective of the designation they are holding at the time of retirement (except if they are promoted to Gaz. rank).
