The Andhra Pradesh Girijan Sangham has alleged that irregularities had occurred in the transfer of Tribal Welfare Grade-II Head Masters, under the purview of Paderu Integrated Tribal Development Agency (ITDA), in ASR district. The Girijan Sangham leaders submitted memoranda to the Alluri Sitharama Raju (ASR) District Collector, ITDA PO and the Deputy Director on July 6.
The Girijan Sangham leaders alleged that the officials of the Tribal Welfare Department had given the postings according to their whims and fancies, though there was a ban on transfer. The reluctance of the officials of the DD Office to give information on the transfer was leading to suspicions among the teachers.
The process for the transfer of TW teachers was held all over the State from May 22 to 30. The government had issued orders that those who had completed five years of service at a single place, would be compulsorily transferred, while those who had completed two years at one place, by April 30, this year, could apply for request transfer.
