Bhubaneswar: The East Coast Railway (ECoR) on Wednesday issued an advisory to job aspirants to be watchful of fraudsters. The ECoR stated that some websites have published a notice claiming that the Indian Railways Protection Force (RPF) is recruiting RPF personnel for Constable Recruitment Examination, 2022.

“East Coast appeals job aspirants not to fall in the claws of Touts promising to provide job in Railways. Several cases have been come to the knowledge of Railway administration in recent times. Innocent people are being cheated by the racketeers luring jobs in Railways despite several steps taken by the Railways to control the tout menace.”
It has been reiterated that “Don’t fall prey to touts, brokers and racketeers to get a Railway job and save your hard-earned money. Get a job through merit and hard work. The Railway Board or Railway Recruitment Board or the Railway Ministry never nominates any agent or an outsourcing agency for recruitment,” the Railways stated.
“Always check the official websites of Railway Recruitment Boards, Railway Recruitment Cells and follow advertisements published by the Boards in Newspapers and in Employment News. Only follow the official websites of Railways. If anybody asks for bribe promising to provide you a job in Railways or if you have any information of corruption or you are a victim of the above, please inform on Vigilance Helpline Number 8455885031,” the advisory added.
