One issue from Bhopal is now getting attention,and honestly,it feels like teachers are saying something very basic only . Madhya Pradesh School Teachers’ Association has asked state government to rethink transfer policy because current rules are making life difficult for many teachers.
On June 21,2026,the association submitted memorandum to Chief Minister Mohan Yadav . Main demand is removal of mandatory e-attendance condition for teachers who want voluntary transfers .
And this is not small thing ah. As per association president Jagdish Yadav,the 90% e-attendance rule has made many teachers ineligible to even apply for transfer . Means even if someone has genuine reason to relocate,rule itself becomes wall in front of them.
The association is also upset about teachers engaged in Census duty being kept out from transfer consideration . That part feels quite unfair because these teachers are doing official duty only,and then same duty is becoming reason to block their transfer chance.
Few things standing out clearly in this matter:
- Teachers must maintain 90% e-attendance to apply for transfers.
- Teachers on Census duty are currently ineligible for transfer .
- Current policies are causing dissatisfaction among educators.
And honestly,this is where policy starts feeling too rigid . Transfer process should have transparency,fairness and some human understanding also,especially when teachers are working across different districts in Madhya Pradesh.
Low morale among teaching staff is not some minor complaint . If educators feel stuck,ignored or punished for duties like Census duty and election duty,then frustration will obviously spread across schools.
Jagdish Yadav’s intervention is basically asking government to review system in balanced way . Not saying remove all rules,but make rules workable for teachers who are already handling multiple responsibilities.
But now real question is whether state government will actually listen and bring amendments,or teachers will again keep waiting behind one more policy file…
