DSEK seeks compliance report from CEOs amid deployment complaints

Srinagar, July 31:The Directorate of School Education Kashmir (DSEK) has sought compliance reports from all Chief Education Officers (CEOs) on implementation of the orders issued for detachment of the teaching and non-teaching staff working in different offices.

The move comes amid the complaints of the poor implementation of the orders earlier issued by the DSEK to all the CEOs to cancel the attachment or deployment of all the teaching and non-teaching staff working in different offices.

“I am directed to refer to this office order no 163-DSEK of 2024 dated, July 1 of 2024 regarding the subject cited above and to request you to furnish compliance and action taken report to this Directorate, immediately,” reads an official communication addressed to all the CEOs.

The CEOs have been asked to submit the details of all those employees (if any), who are yet to report their original place of posting with reasons and clarification.

“Also submit the report that whether the salary of such employees have been billed, drawn in violation to the aforesaid order, or otherwise,” the communication reads citing it as “Matter be treated on priority.”

Greater Kashmir earlier reported about the issue and highlighted the issue of unnecessary deployment of teachers in different offices. Later, the DSEK ordered cancellation of all the attachments and deployments of teachers in offices. However, complaints are pouring in from different districts that scores of teaching and non-teaching staff members are yet to join their original place of posting in clear violation of the DSEK orders.

These teaching and non-teaching members are either working in DC offices, SDM offices and Tehsil offices despite strict orders from DSEK to join their original place of postings.

In the wake of the fresh instructions from DSEK, Chief Education Officer (CEO) Kupwara has written to all the concerned Drawing and Disbursing Officers (DDOs) with the directions to furnish the action taken report regarding the subject.

“The report must be submitted positively for apprising to the Director School Education Kashmir,” the communication reads.
