Answer given by the minister

THE MINISTER OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT, SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY AND OCEAN DEVELOPMENT (DR. MURLI MANOHAR JOSHI)


(a) & (b) There was no ban on the transfer of lady teachers under Displacement subclause 10 of Transfer Guidelines nor have ladies been exempted from displacement under the transfer guidelines. Since the policy of displacement was being introduced for the first time last year, ladies had been exempted from displacement in that year only. Thereafter this exemption from displacement has not been extended.
