Encls : As above (T Lakra) Sr Personnel Officer(RRT) For Chief Personnel Officer Copy of Railway Boards Letter No. E(W)2004/WE-1/6 dated 8th December, 2005 RBE No.212/2005 SC No.2 to MC No. 45 addressed to the General Manager/SECR Sub: Homoeopathic/Ayurvedic Dispensaries under Staff Benefit Fund -Enhancement of honorarium of Physicians. 1. This has reference to Ministry of Railways letter No.E(W)2003/WE-1/3 dated 23-4-2003 on the subject. 2. There have been demands for further increase in the monthly honorarium payable to homoeopathic/ayurvedic practitioners by Staff Benefit Fund Committees. It has been decided to make additional funds available to SBF committees for the purpose. The SBF committees may revise monthly honorarium of the practitioners engaged in the SBF dispensaries as under: Present Revised (a) Physicians engaged to work for around eight hours a day Rs.4,500 p.m. Rs.6,000 p.m (b) Physicians engaged to work for around four hours a day Rs.3,200 p.m. Rs.4,000 p.m. 3. Annual allotment for "Indigenous Systems of Medicine" under SBF (under which homoeopathic and ayurvedic dispensaries function) at Rs.2.50 per capita being inadequate to meet increase in requirement of funds on account of above revision in the honorarium, the additional expenditure necessitated due to revision in the honorarium of the physicians under these orders would also be met through re-appropriation from the head "Medical Services" as additional adhoc contribution to the SBF, and the Medical Budget would be suitably augmented from Revenues as advised in Board's letter dated 23-4-2003 referred to above. CPOs would advise CMDs about the additional funds required on this account so that the same could be reflected in the budgetary estimates. 4. These orders are effective from 01-11-2005. 5. In case of the Zonal Railways, expenditure on this account is chargeable to Demand No.11 (Staff Welfare & Amenities) Minor head "Medical Services" (Control and superindence at Headquarters and Divisions). In case of Production Units, etc., the expenditure would be chargeable to corresponding heads of account. 6. This issues with the concurrence of Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.
