Education Minister Rohit Thakur today said that transfers in the Education Department would stop at the end of this month. The government has stopped round-the-year transfers in the department and are done only at the start of the academic session so that the studies of the students are not hampered.

The minister said, “I am in favour of a proper transfer policy in the state. Many states have adopted a policy and we will adopt one in Himachal sooner or later.” He added that the services of 778 part-time water carriers working in the Education Department, who had completed 11 years in job as on March 31, had been regularised against vacant Class-IV posts.

He said that the government was filling vacant posts and had sanctioned 15,000 posts of teacher, including 3,900 in the Primary Education Department. Additional 3,100 posts would soon be filled through the HP Rajya Chayan Aayog. To strengthen pre-primary education, 6,200 nursery teachers were being appointed, he added.
