examiners. However, while holding that a candidate is

not fit according to the norms laid down in these

regulations, it would be permissible for a Medical Board

to recommend to the Government of India for reasons

specifically recorded in writing that he may be admitted

to service without disadvantage to Government.

2 (a) the Government of India reserve to themselves

absolute discretion to reject or accept any candidate after

considering the report of the Medical Board.

2(b) To be passed as fit for appointment, a candidate

must be in good mental and bodily health and free from

any physical defect likely to interfere with the efficient

performance of the duties of his/ her appointment.

and chest girth of candidates of Indian (including Anglo-

Indian) race, it is left to the Medical Board to use whether

correlation figures arc considered most suitable as a guide

in the examination of the candidates, if there be any

disproportion with regard to height, weight and chest

girth, the candidates shoule be hospitalised for

investigation and X-ray of the chest taken before the

candidate is declared fit or not by the Board

However, the X-ray of the chest will be done in

respect of only such candidates who are directed to appear

before the Medical Board for Part II of the medical

examination.

follows:—

He will remove his shoes and be placed against the

standard with his feet together and the weight thrown on

the heels and not on the toes or other sides of the feet, he

will stand erect without rigidly and with the heels, caves,

buttocks and shoulders touching the standard, the chin

will be repressed to bring the vertex of the head level

under the horizontal bar and the height will be recorded

in centimetres and parts of a centimetres to halves

5. The candidate's chest will be measured as

follows :—

He will be made to stand erect with his feet together

and to raise his arms over his head. The tape will be so

adjusted round the chest that its upper edge touches the

interior angles of the shoulders blades behind and lies in

the same horizontal plane when the tape is taken round

the chest. The arms will then be lowered to hang loosly

by the side and care will be taken that the shoulders are

of any disease or abnormality, The candidate will

be rejected if he suffers from any morbid

conditions of eye, eyelids or contiguous structure

of such a sort as to render or are likely at future

dale to render him unfit for Service,

(ii) Visual Acuity.—The examination for determining

the acuteness of vision includes two tests—one for

distant the other for near vision Each eye will be

examined separately.

There shall be no limit for maximum nacked eye

vision but the nacked eye vision of the candidates shall

however, be recorded by the Medical Board or other

medical authority in every case as it will furnish the basic

information in regard to the conditions of the eye.

(a) In respect of the Technical Services mentioned at

A above, the total amount of myopia (including the cylinder)

shall not exceed—4.00 D. Total amount of Hypermetropia

(including the cylinder) shall not exceed+4.00D.

Provided that in case a candidate in respect of the

Servicf s classified as "Technical" (othcT than the Services

under the Ministry of Railways) is found unfit on grounds

of high myopia the matter shall be referred to a special

boards of three Ophthalmologists to declare whether this

myopia is Pathological or not In case it is not pathological

the candidate shall be declared fit provided he fulfils the

visual requirements otherwise.

(b) In every case of myopia fundus examination

should be carried out and the results recorded. In the event

of any pathological condition being present which is likely

to be progressive and affect the efficiency of the candidate,

he shall be declared unfit.

considered as disqualification for appointment in Railway

Technical Services (Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and

Electronics). Permitted correction for conforming to

prescribed visual standards is spectacles only.

NOTE (2)

The testing of colour vision shall be essential in

respect of the Technical Services mentioned at A above.

Colour perception should be graded into higher and

lower grade depending upon the size of aperture in the

lantern as described in the table below :—

For the Railway Engineering Services (Civil,

Electrical, Signal and Mechanical) and other service

connected with the safety of the public, higher grade of

colour vision is essential but for others lower grade of

colour vision should be considered sufficient.

The categories of Services posts which require

higher or lower grade colour perception areas indicated

below :—

Technical Services or posts requiring higher grade

colour Perception :—

(i) Railway Engineering Services.

(ii) Military Engineering Service (IDSE) and Surveyor

Cadre.

(iii) Survey of India Group 'A' Service,

(iv) Central Engineering Service (Roads).

(v) Central Power Engineering Service, (vi) Border

Roads Engineering Service, Group A.

(vii) Assistant Executive Engineer (Group 'A') in the

Corps of EME.

Technical Service or posts requiring lower grade

colour Perception:—

(i) Central Engineering Service.

(ii) Central Electrical and Mechanical Engineering

Service.

(iii) Indian Naval Armament Service,

(iv) Indian Ordnance Factory Service,

(v) Central Water Engineering Service.

(vi) Drilling Engineer (Junior) Group 'A' in Geological

Survey of India.

(vii) Engineer Group 'A' in Wireless Planning and

Coordination Wing/ Monitoring Organisation.

Satisfactory colour vision constitutes, recognition

with case and without hesitation of Red, Green and Yellow

colours. The use of Ishihara's plates, shown in good light

and a suitable lantern like Edrige Green's shall be

considered quite dependeble for resting colour vision,

Both the Ishihara's plates and Edrige Green's lantern shall

be used for testing colour vision of candidates for

appointment to the Technical Services.

NOTE (3) Field of vision—The field of vision shall

be tested in respect of all Services by the confrontation

method. Where such test gives unsatisfactory or doubtful

results the field of vision should be determined on the

perimeter.

NOTE (4) For Night Blindness—Night blindness

need not be tested as a routine but only in special cases.

No standard test for the testing of night blindness or dark

adaption is prescribed. The Medical Board should be given

the discretion to improvise such rough test e.g. recording

of visual acuity with reduced illumination or by making

the candidate recognise various objects in a darkened room

after he has been there for 20 to 30 minutes. Candidates

own statements should not always be relied upon but they

should be given due consideration.

NOTE (5) For Central Engineering Serviccs/CES

(Roads)— Candidates may be required to pass the colour

vision test and undergo test for night blindness when

considered necessary by the Medical Board. For Survey

of India Group 'A* Service the candidate may be required

to pass a 'stereoscopic fusion' test.

NOTE (6) Ocular conditions, other than visual

acuity—

(a) Any organic disease or a progressive refractive

error, which is likely to result in lowering the visual acuity,

should be considered as a disqualification.

(b) Squint : For technical services presence of

binocular vision is essential. The presence of Squint, even

if the vision acuity in each eye is of the prescribed standard

should be considered a disqualification in the absence of

binocularity. For non-technical services the presence of

squint should not be considered as a disqualification if

the visual acuity is of the prescribed standards.

THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY

[PART I—SEC. 11

or has subnormal vision, the usual effect is that the person

lacks stereoscopic vision for perception of depth. Such

vision is not necessary for many civil posts. The medical

board may recommend as fit, such persons provided the

normal eye has—

(1) 6/6 distant vision and J/I near vision with or

without glasses, provided the error in any meridian

is not more than 4 dioptres for distant vision.

(ii) has full field of vision,

(iii) normal colour vision wherever required.

Provided the board is satisfied that the candidate can

perform all the functions for the particular job in question.

The above relaxed standard of visual acuity will not

apply to candidates for Posts/Services classified as

"TECHNICAL".

NOTE (7) Contact Lenses :—During the medical

examination of a candidate, the use of contact lenses is

not to be allowed.

NOTE (8) It is necessary that when considering eye

lest the illumination of the type letters for distant vision

should have an illumination of 15 foot candles.

NOTE (9) It shall be open to Government to relax

any one of the conditions n f?v <ur of any candidate for

special reasons.

8. Blood Pressure

The Board will use n$ d u e ;Uon regarding Blood

Pressure. A rough method of calculating normal,

maximum, systolic pressure is as ijllows :-•—

(i) With young subjects IS--25 years of age the

average is about 100 plus :>gc.

(ii) With subject over 25 years of age general rule of

110 plus half the age seems quite satisfactory.

N. B.—As a general rule any systolic prescription

140 mm and diastolic over 90 mm should be regarded as

suspicious and the candidate should be hospitalised by

(tic Board before giving their final opinion regarding the

candidate's fitness or otherwise. The hospitalisation report

should indicate whether the rise in blood pressure is of a

transient nature due to excitement etc. or whether it is

due to any organic disease. In all such cases X-ray and

electro cardiographic examinations of heart and blood urea

clearance test should also be done as routine. The final

decision as to the fitness or otherwise of a candidate will,

however, rest with the Medical board only.

Method of taking Blood Pressure

The mercury manometer type of instrument should

be used as a rule. The measurement should not be taken

within fifteen minutes of any exercise of excitement.

Provided the patient and particularly his arm is relaxed,

he may be either lying or sitting. The arm is supported

comfortably at the patient's side in a more or less

horizontal position. The arm should be free from clothes

to the shoulder. The cuff completely deflated, should be

applied with the middle of the rubber over the inner side

of the arm and its lower edge an inch or two above the

bend of the elbow. The following turns of cloth bandage

should spread evenly over the bag to avoid bulging during

inflation.

The brachial artery is located by palpitation at the

bend of the elbow and the stethoscope is then applied

lightly and centrally over it below, but not in contact with

the cuff The cuff is inflated to above 200 mm. Hg. and

then slowly deflated. The level at which the column stand

when soft successive sounds are heard represents the

Systolic Pressure. When more air is allowed to escape the

sounds will be heard to increase in intensity The level at

which the column well heard clear sounds change to soft

muffled fading sounds' represents the diastolic pressure.

The measurements should be taken in a fairly brief period

of time as prolonged pressure of the cuff is irritating to

the patient and will vitiate the readings. Re-checking if

necessary, should be done only a few minutes after

complete deflaction of the cuff. (Sometimes as the cuff is

deflated sounds are heard at a certain level they may

disappear as pressure falls and reappear at a still lower

level. This "Silent Gap" may cause error in reading.)

9. The urine (passed in the presence of the examiner)

should be examined and the results recorded. When a

Medical Board finds sugar present in a candidate's urine

by the usual chemical tests the Board will proceed with

the examination with all its other aspects and will also

specially note any signs or symptoms suggestive of

diabetes. If except for the glycosuria the Board finds the

candidate conforms to the standards of medical fitness

required they may pass the candidate "fit subject to the

Glycosuria 'being non-diabetic' and the Board will refer

the case to a specified specialist in Medicine who has

hospital and laboratory facilities at his disposal The

Medical specialist will carry out whatever examinations,

clinical and laboratory he considers necessary including

a standard blood sugar tolerance test and will submit his

opinion to the Medical Board upon which the Medical

Board will base its final opinion fit or unfit. The candidates

will not be required to appear in person befroe the Board

on the second occasion. To exculdc the effects of

medication it may be necessary to retain candidate for

several days in hospital under strict supervision.

10. A woman candidate who has a result of test is

found to be pregnant ofl2 weeks standing or over should

be declared temporary unfit until the confinement is over.

k»Shc should be re-examined for a fitness certificate six

weeks after the date of confinement subject to the

production of a medical certificate of fitness from a

registered medical practitioner.

11. The following additional points should be

observed :—

(a) that the candidate's hearing in each ear is good

and that there is no sign of disease of the ear. In case it is

defective the candidate should be got examined by the ear

specialist. Provided that if the defect in hearing is remediable

by operation or by use of a hearing aid a candidate cannot

be declared unfit on the account provided he/she has no

progressive disease in the ear. This provision is not

applicable in the case of Railway Services, other than Indian

Railway Stores Services, the Military Engineer Services,

the Indian Telecommunication Service Group A, Central

Engineering Service Group A, CES (Roads), Central

Electrical Engineering Service Group 'A' Engineering (Group

'A') in Wireless Planning and Coordination Wing/

12. Radiographic examination of the chest for

detecting any abnormality of the heart and lungs, which

may not be apparent by ordinary physical examination will

be restricted to only such candidates who are declared

finally successful at the concerned Engineering Services

Examination.

The decision of the Chairman of the Central Standing

Medical Board (conducting the medical examination of the

concerned candidate) about the fitness of the candidate

shall be final.

13. In case of doubt regarding health of a candidate

the Chairman of the Medical Board may consult a suitable

Hospital Specialist to decide the issue of fitness or unfitness

of the candidate for Government Service e.g. if a candidate

is suspected to be suffering from any mental defect or

aberration; the Chairman of the Board may consult a

Hospital Psychiatrist/Psychologist etc.

When any defect is found it must be noted in the

Certificate and the medical examiner should state his

opinion whether or not, it is likely to interfere with the

efficient performance of the duties which will be required

of the candidate.

14. The Candidates who desire to file an appeal

against the decision of the Medical Board are required to

deposit an appeal fee of Rs. 50/- in such a manner as may

be prescribed by the Government of India, Ministry of

Railways (Railway Board) in this behalf. This fee will be

refundable only to those candidates who are declared fit

by the Appellate Medical Board whereas in the case of

others it will be forfeited. Alongwith, appeal the candidates

must, submit a medical certificate by a registered doctor

specifically mentioning that he is aware of the candidate

having been declared unfit by a Medical Board. Candidates

must have a copy of this certificate when, they present

themselves before the Medical Board, The appeals should

be submitted within 21 days of the date of communication

in which the decision of the first Medical Board is conveyed

to the candidate; otherwise request for medical examination

by an appellate Medical Board will not be entertained. The

medical examination by the Appellate Medical Board will

be arranged only a candidate's own cost. No travelling

allowance or daily allowance will be admissible for the

journeys performed in connection with the medical

examination of the Appellate Medical Board. Necessary

action to arrange medical examination by the Appellate

Medical Board will be taken by the Ministry of Railways

(Railway Board) on receipt of appeals accompanied by the

prescribed fee within the stipulated time.

15. The decision of the Appellate Medical Board will

be final and no appeal shall be against the same.

Medical Board's Report

The following intimation is made for the guidance of

the Medical Examiner:

1. The standard of physical fitness to be adopted

should make due allowance of the age and length of service,

if any of the candidate concerned.

No person will be deemed qualified for admission to

the Public Service who shall not satisfy

Government or the appointing

authority as the case may be that he has no

disease, constitutional affliction, or bodily in-

firmity, unfitting him or likely to unfit him for

that service.

It should be understood that the question of fitness

involves the future as well as the present and

that one of the main objects of medical examina-

tion is to secure continuous effective service and

in the case of candidates for permanent appoint-

ment to prevent early pension or payment in case

of premature death. It is at the same time to be

noted that the question is one of the likelihood

of continuous effective service, and that rejec-

tion of a candidate need not be advised on ac-

count of the presence of a defect which in only a

small proportion of cases is found to interfere

with continuous effective service.

A lady doctor will be co-opted as a member of the

Medical Board whenever a woman candidate

is to be examined.

The report of the Medical Board should be treated

as confidential.

In case where a candidate is declared unfit for ap-

pointment in the Government service, the

ground for rejection may be communicated to

the candidate in broad terms without giving

minute details regarding the defects pointed

out by the Medical Board.

In case where a Medical Board considers that a mi-

nor disability disqualifying a candidate for Gov-

ernment service can be cured by treatment

(medical or surgical) a statement to that effect

should be recorded by the Medical Board.

There is no objection to a candidate being in-

formed of the Board's opinion to this effect by

the appointing authority and when a cure has

been effected it will be open to the authority

concerned to ask for another Medical Board.

In the case of candidates who are to be declared "Tem-

porarily Unfit" the period specified for re-exami-

nation should not ordinarily exceed six months

at the maximum. On re-examination after the

specified period these candidates should not

be declared temporarily unfit for a further pe-

riod but a final decision in regard to their fitness

for appointment or otherwise should be given.

The Medical re-examination shall be deemed to be

part of the 1st Medical Examination and candidates may, if

they so desire, appeal against its decision.

(a) Candidate's statement and declaration.

The candidate must make the Statement required

below prior to his Medical Examination and must sign the

declaration 'appended thereto'. Their attention is specially

directed to the warning contained in the Note below:—
