Extension of tenure period for temporary transfer – CHQ writes letter to Director (HR) BSNL.

CHQ has received many requests seeking extension of the tenure period for officials working under temporary transfer arrangements. A good number of officials, particularly in the JE cadre, were transferred under Rule-9 and, after completion of their tenure period, they are being relieved to return to their parent circles. In this connection, CHQ has forwarded a specific case from UP (West) Circle to the Director (HR), requesting consideration of extension of the tenure period on humanitarian grounds. The concerned official belongs to a circle where the JE cadre has already been declared surplus. CHQ has urged the management to take a sympathetic view and consider extending the temporary transfer tenure in deserving cases to avoid undue hardship to the officials concerned.
