IRTSA warns against capping apex pay for railway technical staff

The Indian Railway Technical Supervisors Association (IRTSA) has objected to any ceiling on the top pay scale based on a fixed salary ratio. IRTSA stresses that railway technical personnel perform specialised, high‑risk duties and their remuneration must reflect those skills. Imposing a cap, the association claims, would undervalue technical experts compared to non‑technical cadres.
