Transfer woes of teachers

LOGGING on to eGTukar, the Education Ministry’s module for transfer applications from teachers, and clicking on the results button is a nerve-racking ordeal.

What exactly does “in the interest of the service” mean? Does it mean there were no available openings in the state requested? Was there an issue with the application? Was the request rejected at one end? I caught myself thinking that even a convicted criminal is granted the right to an appeal. What was the harm in meeting me for about 15 minutes to explain what I could do differently in order to get my transfer approved?We then decided to visit the district education department in the state where I had requested to be transferred to find out if there were vacancies for the subject that I teach.

But I honestly believe the Education Ministry is better than that. We should hold ourselves to better standards. In the case of teachers who are separated from their spouses, I believe it is in the best interest of the Education Ministry to grant them the transfers without delay, provided there are vacancies in the state or district to which they applied. Many are unable to start families, leading to, in many cases, the breakdown of marriages and even families.
