Taking a serious view of the delay, the Departments of Secondary and Elementary Education have warned the employees that their salaries for this month would not be released if the validation of the service book was not done by Wednesday evening.

School heads to ensure validation

All school heads concerned have been asked to ensure validation/finalisation of service books of all their employees within the stipulated time. Some employees who got transferred recently or did not fill mandatory columns earlier are facing technical issues in validating the service book on the HRMS portal. Virendra Malik, DEO, Rohtak
