In 1956, the Estimates committee generally approved the method of recruitment by the constitution of the Railway Service Commissions. To cater to the needs of areas which were being neglected due to locations of the existing commissions, seven more commissions were set up in 1983 viz, at Ahmedabad, Ajmer, Bhopal, Bhuvneshwar, Chandigarh, Jammu and Srinagar with sitting at Leh and Trivendrum. Two more service commissions were set up in 1984 at Malda and Gorakhpur.
