Patna: Bihar Education Minister Mithilesh Tiwari has assured teachers from Uttar Pradesh working in Bihar’s government schools that they will face no discrimination during the upcoming transfer process.

The minister said transfers will remain transparent and will take place through the official teacher transfer portal. Decisions will follow the prescribed Teacher Transfer Rules, without recommendations or personal influence.

Transfer Process to Remain Transparent

The Education Department will conduct the transfer exercise according to the established rules and procedure.

Minister Tiwari said no teacher will receive preferential treatment and that the process will give all eligible teachers equal consideration.

The move is aimed at ensuring a fair and transparent transfer system across Bihar’s government schools.

UP-Origin Teachers Assured Equal Treatment

In a statement issued on Tuesday, Tiwari specifically addressed teachers who originally belong to Uttar Pradesh but currently teach in Bihar.

He said these teachers are contributing to the education of children in the state and will receive the same treatment as other teachers during transfers.

The minister stressed that their place of origin will not influence transfer decisions.

No Recommendations or Personal Influence

The minister also made it clear that the department will not consider recommendations or personal influence while deciding transfers.

All decisions will be based on the prescribed rules and the information submitted through the official transfer system.

This approach is intended to reduce allegations of favouritism and ensure greater transparency in the process.

Rules to Guide Teacher Transfers

The Bihar Education Department has reiterated that the transfer exercise will be carried out strictly according to the Teacher Transfer Rules.

The use of the official portal is expected to make the process more systematic and provide a common platform for teachers seeking transfers.

Focus on Fairness in Education Administration

The minister’s assurance comes as Bihar prepares to implement the teacher transfer process across government schools.

By keeping the process rule-based and portal-driven, the department aims to ensure equal treatment for teachers while limiting outside influence.

For UP-origin teachers working in Bihar, the assurance provides clarity that their state of origin will not become a factor in transfer decisions.
