Item No.3

Sub: Grant of Children Education Allowance and Hostel Subsidy

Railway Board vide their letter No. E(W)2008/ED-2/4 dated 10.06.2009 have laid down the eligibility for Children Education Allowance as follows:

“Reimbursement of Children Education Allowance is admissible for eldest two surviving children studying in schools affiliated to Board of Education”.

“Reimbursement as indicated above will be applicable for expenditure on the education of school going children only i.e. for children from classes nursery to twelfth, including classes eleventh and twelfth held by junior colleges or schools affiliated to Universities or Boards of Education”.

It is clear from the above paragraph that only for class eleventh and twelfth colleges or schools need to be affiliated to Universities or Board of Education and not from Nursery Class.

It may further be mentioned that schools imparting education at Nursery level, primary level and even middle class level i.e. up to Class VI(Six) are not affiliated to any Education Board. Apart from the above, in road side railway stations even some Secondary Schools are also not affiliated to any State Education Board and students studying in those schools are appearing Secondary Examination through some other affiliated schools. The policy of the Govt. is to spread literacy and if, the restriction imposed by the Railway Board’s letter under reference, many students studying Nursery, Primary and middle School / classes are being deprived of the benefits of Educational Assistance.

It is urged that the Children Education Allowance and Hostel Subsidy may please be granted to any two children studying in schools and in respect of up to middle standard affiliation to Board of Education or from any other authority may not be insisted upon.

They exhaust their Earn Leave and had to be remained on LWP for months together causing untold sufferings.
