| Railway cops need valid authority or ticket for train travel on official duty: Railways | | |
Agencies
Ahmedabad, Aug 5: GRP and RPF personnel must obtain a travel authority or purchase a ticket for train travel and carrying only the ID card is not enough, the Railway Claims Tribunal ruled dismissing the plea for compensation filed by a constable who claimed to be on official duty when he fell off a train.
The Ahmedabad bench of the tribunal also underlined the "negligent attitude of Railway" regarding a circular on issuing duty card passes to Government Railway Police (GRP) personnel required to travel frequently.
GRP constable Rajesh Bagul had moved the tribunal seeking ? 8 lakh compensation with interest from Railway claiming he was on official duty on the day of the accident. Bagul went to Surat railway police station for official duty on November 13, 2019. He was returning from Surat to Bharuch on the Surat-Jamnagar intercity train when he fell off at Palej station, causing serious injuries to his left leg, leading to its amputation above the knee, as per his petition.
Tribunal Member (Judicial) Vinay Goel dismissed the petition noting Bagul had failed to provide any valid travel authority to prove his official travel claims.
