The Government of India and the Ministry of Railways had set up Railway Recruitment Board much earlier in India for the purpose of governing the proper recruitment of efficient professional technical as well as non – technical staff to streamline all the hectic and important tasks related to management, controlling, maintenance, supervision, etc. of the Indian Railway system. In the year 1985, in the month of January, the Railway Service Commission was given the new name of Railway Recruitment Board or RRBs. Following this, after 13 years, in the year 1998, all the RRBs in India were brought under the Railway Recruitment Control Board or RRCB’s control. This RRCB was established in the Ministry of Railways for the task of coordinating as well as streamlining the way and procedure of work processes undertaken by all the RRBs.
