💨 Abstract

The Allahabad High Court has nullified a transfer policy for junior teachers in Uttar Pradesh's primary schools, finding it arbitrary and discriminatory. The policy, introduced in June 2024, only transferred junior teachers while senior teachers remained in their posts. The court argued that this policy violated the fundamental right to equality and the Right to Education Act, as it was based on the length of service, not the teacher-student ratio.
