As soon as the new academic session begins in schools and colleges of Himachal Pradesh, the government is going to lift the ban on transfers. Teachers will be transferred in schools from 1 to 30 April and in colleges from 1 to 15 May. Before lifting the ban, the Education Department has asked the interested teachers who have completed their service period in tribal areas to give their options of five schools with vacancies by 15 March.
They will have to apply to the Higher and Primary Directors for transfer. Education Directors will have to send transfer proposals to the government by 20 March. Transfer orders will be issued after approval from the Chief Minister. Mutual transfer of teachers will not be considered. An office order was issued by the Education Secretary on Friday.
This decision was taken in the review meeting chaired by Education Minister Rohit Thakur recently. After getting approval from Chief Minister Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu, Education Secretary Rakesh Kanwar has issued a letter to the Directorate of Higher Education and Directorate of Primary Education informing them about the decision taken regarding the transfer of teachers. The government has outlined new guidelines for teachers currently working in tribal areas.
Teachers in these areas who have completed their normal tenure will have to submit their applications for transfer. Five options of stations with vacancies will also have to be given. After examining the applications, both the directors will submit the transfer proposals to the government by March 20, 2025 for final approval. Orders will be issued after the ban on transfer is lifted. Apart from this, transfer of employees working in general areas who have completed 3 years of service at a station will also be considered.
