Indian Railways Personnel Service

" Dear colleagues, I am overwhelmed with the warmth you have showered on me. It truly gives me immense pleasure that the current development on my career front (appointment as DG-HR) has given you all moments to rejoice. I am grateful to have your continuous wishes and I am confident that collectively we will make the difference to our cadre and our organization. Heartiest thanks to all of my seniors and everyone of you who have reposed their faith and belief on me, as this may not have been possible and must have remained a distant dream. Truth prevails eventually and it’s not my individual but is our collective achievement. We collectively need to see that we succeed. It’s just a beginning and we have miles to go. Look forward for happier days for all of us ahead. "

" I am a firm believer that we have wonderful jewels among us who can out shine anyone and can make a great difference provided given an appropriate opportunity. I foresee that none of us will be struggling to get our professional due as many of us did in the past and will be getting level playing field to perform and deliver. Someone has truly said “Ideas change, attitudes change, manners change, fashions change and change is order of the day”, I remain optimistic and hopeful: with your support and encouragement I will be able to manifest and contribute well. "

" I strongly believe that technology is only a facilitator. No doubt it is a great enabler for great transformation. However everything boils down to the aptitude of the user. Right technology combined with Right-aptitude will bring about genuine transformation for the benefit of all the Railway fraternity. "

" Dear Colleagues, The Indian Railways (IR) is undergoing a rapid transition as new age customers, technology and enhancement in productivity bring about a 360-degree cultural transformation in the organization. The human resource (HR) function is expected to play a key role in shaping this adaptation and contribute significantly to success of Indian Railway’s strategy in the near future. "
