Order on protection of salaries of college, varsity teachers

The Nayab Singh Saini government has corrected a major anomaly in the salary structure of the teaching faculty of colleges and universities across the state. Now, the salaries of teachers who have been appointed in the UGC/AICTE pay structure — earlier, working in the state pay structure — will be protected in their new postings.

An order of the Additional Chief Secretary (Finance) said on subsequent appointment to teaching post from any Haryana Government department, the pay shall be fixed at the entry level (first cell) of the post of the subsequent appointment where the application has not been submitted through proper channel.

However, if the application is submitted through proper channel, the pay will be fixed at the entry level (first cell). Similarly, in these cases, the pay will be fixed equal to the corresponding cell, if available, in the functional level of the new post. The pay will be fixed at the next cell above the existing cell, if the same cell is not available in the functional level of the new post.

The past service will not be counted towards any other benefits, such as the career advancement scheme (CAS), the order added.
