The Andhra Pradesh government has revised and published updated details about inter-state transfers of government employees, raising concern among staff in neighbouring Telangana. Recent updates include revised lists and criteria for AP employees eligible to be transferred to Telangana. Staff groups in Telangana worry that the changes could affect their seniority, promotions, and service benefits if not addressed clearly.
Officials say the update is meant to manage records of staff who have links to Telangana through domicile or service history, and who may opt for transfer. However, many Telangana employees are apprehensive about how these changes might impact career progression and job opportunities locally. Some union leaders claim that without transparent communication and safeguards, such updates could disrupt the state’s staffing plans.
Employee unions are now urging both states to clarify the transfer rules and ensure that any movement does not unfairly disadvantage Telangana staff. They want guarantees that promotions, grade pay, and other service benefits will not be harmed due to the changes. As concerns grow, demands for open discussions between the two state governments and employee representatives are increasing. The situation highlights ongoing challenges in inter-state transfer arrangements, even years after the states were reorganised.
