Highlighting the annual employment procedure, Vaishnaw explained the railway's revised approach.

He mentioned the railway's commitment to creating vacancies on a regular basis, reflecting the growth in railway infrastructure and operations each year. The ongoing recruitment for 5,696 ALPs, starting from January 20, signifies the railway's dedication to offering annual opportunities for applicants. Khandelwal emphasized the positive change in recruitment frequency, stating, "Earlier, the railway used to conduct recruitment once every three or four years. Now, the railway will announce vacancies annually, facilitating a more frequent recruitment process. The initial notification for 5,696 loco pilots was issued on January 20, marking the beginning of increased opportunities for candidates in the railway sector."
