Haryana govt prepares draft policy for teachers' transfer

The Haryana government has prepared the draft policy for inter-district transfer of regular district cadre teachers, including primary teachers (PRTs), junior basic training (JBT) teachers, host teachers (HT) and classical and vernacular (C&V) teachers.
Objections and suggestions have been invited from the teachers and their unions on the policy and these should be submitted by February 28, an official spokesman said here today.
He added that only the district cadre teachers -- regular PRT, JBT, HT and C&V teachers working in the elementary education department -- were eligible to be considered for transfer under the policy.
However, those recruited specifically against the Mewat cadrewould not be transferred out of Mewat, the spokesman said, adding that other teachers working in Mewat would be eligible to be considered for transfer under this policy.

The applicant teacher would have to mention three districts of his or her choice while seeking transfer, the spokesman said.
