Andhra teachers’ associations flag anomalies in new service rules
The associations said they had repeatedly requested the government to frame comprehensive and uniform service rules for Government and Panchayat Raj teachers in the wake of the Presidential Order, 2025
Teachers' associations in Andhra Pradesh have raised concerns over alleged inconsistencies and discrepancies in the newly issued teachers' service rules. The Forum of Recognised Teacher Associations of Andhra Pradesh (FRTAAP) has sought a committee to examine the rules and propose amendments. The groups claim that the new rules lack clarity on the classification of certain posts and their appointment methods, creating confusion about seniority, service conditions, and promotional prospects.
Issues also arise regarding the cadre strength of MEOs and the revised ratios for promotions and direct recruitment to School Assistant (Languages) posts.
