Punjab Education Minister Sikander Singh Maluka, in the release, said that there will be no single transfer in the department except the adjustments of those teachers, who have been declared surplus during ongoing rationalisation process.
He categorically said that no teacher should approach his office for the purpose of transfer.
The minister said the number of periods for teachers have been rescheduled under rationalisation policy.
