First of all whether our circle will accept it or not, it is better to vanish the Emergency Quota system It shoud be only to Political people going to sessions, Higher Government Executives attending for meetings, seminars, inspections. Even railway executives and inspectorial officials when they go on line inspection ony to be given chance of this EQ. For all the above a documentary evidence about the nomination for the meetings, inspections, etc. with their name duly signed by Authorised Dignitory of their respective heads should be submitted along with EQ application. With this about 90% mal-practice can be eradicated. Hope our circle may not accept for this since swome of our people using this EQ system with some influence. This EQ is becoming a big rocket of scam which no railway official or vigilance or CBI is observing. more
