Even though UT Administrator Shiv Raj Patil has launched an initiative to weed out the staff which has overstayed its deputation period, a look at the list of more than 200 teachers on deputation from adjoining states shows that certain teachers in this category have been working in the city for the past more than 20 years against the normal deputation period of only five years.
In an important order recently, “the Adviser to the Administrator in consultation with the Administrator” repatriated six employees from Punjab State Electricity Board and Haryana Vidhyut Prasaran Nigam Limited “on account of their prolonged period of deputation in the UT”.
The UT teachers are a peeved lot as a number of teachers from “outside” had been promoted over then and even appointed principals. They are complaining that they were also ignored on account of providing them housing compared to their counterparts from the neighbouring states. While the recruitment for teachers is stuck up in files, the UT has sought a list of more than 75 teachers on deputation from the neighbouring states.
The Punjab Service Rules, which the UT follows with regard to the appointment of teachers, clearly says that “the initial period of deputation may be extended up to five years by the Administrative department concerned and in a rare case of special nature, if exigencies so require in public interest, such period may be extended beyond five years”.
The UT list has names of several employees who are working here for the past more than 20 years, besides several others who retired from the UT while on deputation. The list has names of at least 14 Block Education Officers working as JBT teachers.
The UT has more than 200 teachers on deputation from Punjab and Haryana besides certain teachers from Himachal Pradesh who have exceeded a period of stay of more than five years in the city.
Confirming the UT initiative to seek teachers on deputation, Sandeep Hans, the DPI, said, “Punjab has already supplied us with more than 20 names. Our schools have witnessed excellent results in board examination, this year and we did not want to compromise with their classes till the time we finished our recruitment.”
VKSingh, education secretary, said, “The nature of job of teachers did not tally with deputation on administrative posts. Moreover, Chandigarh is unique because it is was the joint capital of Punjab and Haryana.”
Swarn Singh Kamboj, president of the UT Cadre Educational Employees Union, said “the glaring abnormalities in deputation period affected the service interest of the UT teachers. Teachers from outside have been given promoted principals in the city over and above the UT teachers”.
“Employees from other states had even managed residential quarters. through the administration, The list of preferred teachers included wives and relatives of senior teachers and other VVIPs,”Kamboj added.
