Final DSL Under Wire - Final
Note: One of the reason for diesel under wire is non availability of
adequate operation & maintenance staff with zonal railways.
The proposal for creation of 214 Gazetted & 3895 NG posts is
pending in board for more than a year.
Sanctioned needs to be communicated to Zonal Railways on
priority, so that newly created assets & upcoming sections of
7,000 RKM in 2019-20 can be used for smooth train operation
& maintenance of electric traction assets in ensured.
