Guidelines for regulating transfer of Group 'C', Group 'B' (non-gazetted) and Assistant Superintendent of Posts

Transfer Policy for Group B & C Posts and Assistant Superintendents of Posts




Subject: - Instructions regarding Rotational transfer.

Sir/Madam,
. I am directed to refer to transfer policy guidelines for regulating
transfer of Group 'C', Group 'B' (non-gazetted) and Assistant Superintendent of
Posts issued vide Directorate's communication no. 141-14l/2013 SPN-II dated
17.01.20I9. As per para 5 (i) if ibid communication, Post tenure of an employee
shall be 3 years and station tenure shall be 6 years. However, an employee may be
transferred before completion of post/station tenure on administrative grounds for
reasons to be recorded in writing by a'n authority who is superior to the authority
competent to order such transfer. The Authority Competent to approve the
rotational transfer in normal course will initiate the proposal with proper
justification for approval of the Superior Authority.
2. Various references have been received from service Unions/Associations
requesting to exempt RMS officials from the provision of 6 years of Station tenure.
The matter has been examined and found that most of the posts in RMS held by
Group 'C' officials are non sensitive posts. Therefore, it has been decided to exempt
Group 'C' RMS officials from the provision of 6 years of station tenure. However,
the provision of post tenure of 3 years will continue to be in force.

Yours faithfully

(Muthuraman C )
Assistant Director General (SPN)
