Assam withdraws the 14-day joining deadline for teachers engaged in Census duties following intra- and inter-district mutual transfers
Guwahati: The Directorate of Elementary Education, Assam has withdrawn the 14-day joining deadline for teachers who are currently engaged or deployed for Census duties following intra-district and inter-district mutual transfers.
According to a notification issued on August 19, teachers who are not involved in Census-related work must report to their new places of posting within the period prescribed in their respective transfer orders.
However, the 14-day joining period specified under Point No. 1 of the terms and conditions has been withdrawn for teachers currently engaged or deployed for Census duties.
The decision follows the intra-district and inter-district mutual transfer orders issued through the Teacher Transfer Management System (TTMS) on August 10, 2026.
The Directorate clarified that all other terms and conditions mentioned in the respective transfer orders will continue to remain applicable. The notification was issued by Suranjana Senapati, ACS, Director of Elementary Education, Assam.
The move provides additional flexibility to teachers involved in Census-related responsibilities, allowing them to continue their assigned duties without being bound by the earlier joining deadline at their transferred postings.
