The 5{+t}{+h}Zonal Conference of the All-India Loco
Running Staff Association was held in the city on Saturday with the
members cautioned against privatisation efforts of the government.
The
conference was inaugurated by the All-India Insurance Employees’
Association president Amanullah Khan who said that the privatisation of
railways would follow a familiar pattern with the profit-making units
being handed over to the private players. Foreign Direct Investment
proposed for the Railways was only for the maximisation of profit for
the multinational corporations and not to help the people of the country
as Railways would cease to be a service-oriented sector, he added.
The
conference also stressed upon the imperatives of adequate resting time
for the loco pilots in view of the safety of the passengers. About 150
loco pilots from the South Western Railway are attending the conference
to take cognisance of their long-pending demands and their working
conditions.
The association said many favourable
recommendations pertaining to the loco running staff has been kept in
cold storage by the Railway Board and the conference has resolved to get
them implemented.
This includes reducing the duty hours and the night duty hours, timely promotions, imperatives of filling up vacancies etc.
