Staff stucked on lockdown has to marked special casual leave and absent

Waltair: Staff stucked on lockdown has to marked special casual leave (SCL)/Duty but staff marked absent from May 3rd week in waltair division, East Coast Railway.

No Trains and privilege pass was not eligible to travel on trains as train numbers first digit changed to zero.

Huge number of staff under containment zone/red zone, even administration circulars given to work from home.

Officers of ECoR/Waltair division instructed their supervisors to mark staff own leave and certain cases marked absent.

Without following master circular 10 on SCL, clearly mentioned staff residing beyond 5kms need to attend duties as train movements were not started.

This is a old sickness in Railway Administration, which is interested only in output and not in staff safety, and wellbeing of Railwaymen.

GM/ECoR has to obtain the data from ground level.
