Hyderabad: Under pressure from teachers of state-run schools, the Telangana government has removed a clause in the recently framed rules that mandated transfer of principals and teachers of underperforming schools to remote areas.
As per the Telangana Teachers (Regulation of Transfers) Rules issued earlier this month, “The headmaster and the subject teacher concerned of the school in which the pass percentage in the SSC Public Exam (March) is less than 25 per cent shall be transferred to the schools located in Category-III/IV habitations.”
In an amendment issued on Saturday night, this clause has been removed. Teachers had been pressing the government to do away with the transfer clause.
