Naresh  Sharma  State  Apex Member  JKRETF  while  addressing  a  press  conference  at  Rajouri  said  that Government  should  implement  transfer  policy  without  any  delay. He  said that   High  Court  in  its  decision  has clearly  directed the  State  Government  that  after  regularisation  the  ReTs  should  be  considered  as  general  line  teachers and  all  the  conditions  of  general  line  teachers  should  be  implemented  after  their regularisation.
Sharma  said  that  female  teachers  are  more  sufferers  and  after  marriage  it is  difficult  for  them  to  run  the  family  and  school  and  many  homes  got  broken  due  to  non  transfer  of  ReT  teachers. He  claimed  that  ReT  teachers  have  played  a  vital  role  in  improving  education  standard  in  all  corners  of  the State and  opened  the  doors  of  closed  schools  in  militancy  era  when  no  general  line  teacher  dared  to  go  for  duty  in  far  flung  areas. He  further  said  that  Government  is  challenging  the  law  of  nature  because ” change  is  the  law  of  nature ” and  stagnation  at  one place  causes  rust  of  mind.
On  the  occasion  Manjoor  Khan  district  president, Rajouri  and  Inderjeet  Singh  ex  district president  in  a  joint  statement  said  that  discrimination  with  ReTs  shall  never  be  tolerated and  their  five  years  seniority  should  also  be  given  in  addition  to  transfer  policy.
