Dear Sir,

Sub: Permission to Muslim Railway employees, observing fast during Holy month of Ramzan, for early leaving office

As you are aware, every year Railway Board communicates instructions to the General Managers of the Indian Railways to permit Muslim Railway Employees, observing fast during Holy month of Ramzan, for early leaving office, but this year, orders to this effect have not yet been issued by the Railway Board.

It would, therefore, be quite appropriate if necessary instructions are communicated to the General Managers of the Indian Railways to permit Muslim Railway Employees, observing fast during Holy month of Ramzan, for early leaving office.

An early action in the matter shall be highly appreciated.

Copy to: E.D.(IR), Railway Board – for necessary action please.
