Dated: 07.06.20l6

During the Holy month of Ramzan, the time of Iftar coincides with setting of the sun, which takes place quite early.

It has, therefore, been decided that those Muslim Railway employees who observe fast and are required to travel a long distance to their residence for Iftar, may be allowed to leave office early, wherever feasible.
