Rule 18, MP Tribes and Scheduled Castes Teaching Cadre Rules, 2018 | District-Level Seniority Must Be Preserved in Teacher Transfers : MP HC Jabalpur
The Madhya Pradesh High Court has quashed the transfer of a tribal teacher outside his district, affirming that Rule 18 of the 2018 Service Rules mandates seniority be preserved at the district level. This ruling protects hundreds of tribal educators from arbitrary transfers that erode their service rights and undermines administrative fairness in education postings.
