Andhra government releases schedule for transfer of teachers, focus on transparency

VIJAYAWADA: The State government has released the transfer schedule for Headmasters, Grade-II, School Assistants, Secondary Grade Teachers, and equivalent cadre working in Government, Zilla Parishad, Mandal Parishad, Municipal, and Municipal Corporation Schools. This follows the enactment of the Andhra Pradesh State Teachers Transfers Regulation Act, 2025, and a recent interim order by the High Court.
Director of School Education V Vijay Rama Raju released the schedule on Wednesday, based on GO No. 22 issued by the School Education (Services II) Department Tuesday midnight. The government has empowered itself to regulate teacher transfers to ensure the optimal deployment of staff across all school levels.
As per the new rules, principals (Headmasters Grade-II) are eligible for transfer after completing five years of service at one place, and teachers after eight years. A detailed points-based system will be followed for the purpose, one point for Category-1, two for Category-2, three for Category-3, and five each for Category-4 and station preferences. Additionally, teachers will be awarded 0.5 service points for each year of completed service.
The government clarified that by May 31, all vacancies, including those arising from retirement, rationalisation, mandatory transfers, long absence (over a year), and study leave, will be displayed.
All Regional Joint Directors and District Education Officers have been instructed to complete the transfers and promotions strictly according to the schedule. The Additional Director (IT) has been directed to make necessary digital arrangements to ensure smooth implementation.
The transfer initiative aims to rationalise teacher deployment across foundational, primary, upper primary, and high schools, thereby improving academic standards and maintaining transparency in staffing decisions.

Govt. neglecting farmers, no info on extent of loans: BJP

The BJP has accused the Congress Government of neglecting farmers and pushing them into misery despite the new agriculture season commencing early this year. At a press conference at the BJP office here on Thursday, Deputy Floor leader in the Assembly, Payal Shankar, said that there is no official information about the extent of loans sanctioned by banks this season and how much has been disbursed so far. 'Many farmers are unable to go for fresh loans due to the 'half-baked' loan waiver scheme, with no clarity on those who had taken more than ₹2 lakh loan,' he said. The BJP MLA said that despite Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy assuring to join the PM's farm insurance scheme, ignored by BRS Government, there has been no forward movement with not a single paisa released so far. Why not CBI? With regard to the ongoing Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project probe, Mr. Shankar questioned why the Government has been reluctant to hand over the case to the CBI considering that there are allegations of money laundering in the case. The irrigation project has been 'corruption ridden' from Day One to the last day with allegations in every aspect of the construction, he maintained, and asked why the Government has been dilly-dallying about implementing the recommendations of the NDSA. 'Don't criticise Kishan' He advised Mr. Revanth Reddy to desist from criticising party president and Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy claiming that the latter has already ensured Telangana got sufficient funds and has been striving for more. The party has won eight MP and eight MLA seats besides bagging two MLC seats which indicates the support of the people, he said. The unfounded criticism directed against Mr. Kishan Reddy could also be a ruse to divert people's attention from the ruling party's failure to implement election promises.

India's Social Security Coverage Increased By 64% In 10 Years: Centre

New Delhi: India has achieved a milestone in the realm of social protection coverage, recording one of the most significant expansions globally. According to the latest data from the International Labour Organisation's (ILO) ILOSTAT database, India's social security coverage has increased from 19% in 2015 to 64.3% in 2025, an unprecedented 45 percentage point surge over the past decade. While holding a bilateral discussion with the Director General, ILO, Gilbert F Houngbo on the sidelines of the International Labour Conference (ILC), Union Minister of Labour and Employment and Youth Affairs and Sports, Mansukh Mandaviya, highlighted the pro-poor and labour welfare schemes undertaken by the Modi Government over the past 11 years. According to an official release, Union Minister also apprised DG ILO about the national-level Social Protection Data Pooling Exercise that has been carried out by the Government in collaboration with the International Labour Organisation, a release said. Recognising these efforts, ILO acknowledged India's achievement and officially published on its dashboard that 64.3 per cent of India's population, i.e. over 94 crore people, are now covered under at least one social protection benefit. In 2015, this figure was just 19 per cent. In terms of beneficiary count, India now ranks second in the world, providing social protection to around 94 crore citizens. DG ILO praised India's focused welfare policies for the poor and labour class under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. ILO's Criteria for Scheme Consideration for each country include that the scheme should be legislatively backed, in cash and be active, and verified time series data of the last three years has to be provided. Speaking from Geneva, Mandaviya said, "This remarkable achievement stands as a testament to the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the relentless efforts of the Government in building an inclusive and rights-based social protection ecosystem. The increase marks the fastest expansion in social protection coverage worldwide, reflecting the Government's unwavering commitment to 'Antyodaya', i.e. empowering the last mile and fulfilling the promise of leaving no one behind". The release said it is important to note that the present figure reflects only Phase I of the data pooling exercise. "This phase focused on beneficiary data of Central sector schemes and women-centric schemes in the selected 8 States. With Phase II and further consolidation underway, it is expected that India's total social protection coverage will soon surpass the 100-crore mark upon verification of additional schemes by the ILO," the release said. India is also the first country globally to update its 2025 social protection coverage data in the ILOSTAT database, reinforcing its leadership in digital governance and transparency in welfare systems. The release said that increase in Social Protection Coverage will further strengthen India's global engagements, particularly in finalising Social Security Agreements (SSAs) with developed nations. These agreements will ensure the portability of social protection benefits for Indian professionals working overseas, while offering partner countries the transparency required for mutual recognition frameworks. This will further bolster India's position in trade and labour mobility negotiations by showcasing a credible and robust social protection regime, the release said. Mandaviya is leading an Indian delegation to Geneva, Switzerland, from June 10 to 12 to participate in the 113th session of the International Labour Conference (ILC) of the ILO.
