Transfer: RBE No.127/2000 – TGTs/ PGTs of Railway Schools

No.E(NG)I-2000/TR/12, dated 28.06.2000

(Supplementary Circular No.12 to Master Circular No.24)

Sub: Inter/ Intra Railway own request transfer of TGT/ Post Graduate Teacher of Railway Schools.

1. One of the Railways has raised a query as to whether in the event of non-availability of suitable eligible teachers from the lower grade, by way of promotion, requests for inter/ intra-railway transfer in the categories of TGTs/ PGTs can be entertained or otherwise.

2. As the Railways are aware, there are no fixed percentages for recruitment and promotion in the categories of PGTs and TGTs and the practice prevalent in this regard is to fill up the posts by promotion to the extent serving Teachers with requisite qualifications are available and found suitable and the shortfall, if any, made good by direct recruitment. The matter has been examined by the Ministry of Railways in this back-ground.  It has since been decided that requests from TGTs/ PGTs for their inter/ intra-Railway transfers on acceptance of bottom seniority in the respective recruitment (basic) grade may be considered against posts which cannot be filled by promotion for want of suitable qualified serving teachers in the relevant unit and are otherwise necessarily to be filled by direct recruitment from the open market. For this purpose the Railways etc. may evolve a suitable system in case the same does not already exist.
