Tamilisai urged to seek a report from government on transfers
The Telangana Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has requested Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan to “intervene” and “review” the tranfers made to government employees under the GO 317 by the TRS Government on Tuesday.
In a memorandum submitted to the Governor at the Raj Bhavan, a party delegation led by former MLC N. Ramchander Rao, state convener of legal cell Ravinder Vishwanath and others, urged her to seek a report from the government to ‘rectify’ the “arbitrary” transfers by ordering for allotments based on “transparency and legally”.
The party contended that the government had counted seniority from the date of transfers taken up in 2018-20 by the teachers on mutual consent or inter district transfers. Having lost their seniority for purpose of promotions, the officials concerned did not count their seniority based on their date of appointment for the current transfers and this was “illegal”, they maintained.
