Review of promotion complaints from nearly 6,000 teachers gathers pace

The Teacher Service Commission has accelerated work to publish the review results of complaints filed by around 6,000 teachers who appeared on the promotion merit list.

According to commission spokesperson Parshuram Tiwari, the merit list is being published continuously as decided by the secretariat of the Promotion Recommendation Committee.

Such promotions are based 75 percent on performance evaluation.

Teachers had filed complaints after being dissatisfied with the performance evaluations conducted by the Education Development Directorates under the ministries overseeing education in various provinces.

The commission says it is determining district- and level-wise results after studying documents and evidence under Chapter 15 of the Operating Procedure, 2078.

This Kattik, review results for the secondary level-II category have been published for districts including Ilam, Sunsari and Jhapa.

The review work had been stalled for nearly six months due to the absence of office-bearers at the commission.
