The Uttar Pradesh government has extended the deadline for inter-district mutual transfer applications for married teacher couples working in state-run schools. Eligible applicants will now be able to submit their requests until August 5.
The relief follows an order by the Allahabad High Court, which prompted the state to give more time in the transfer process. The move is expected to benefit teacher couples seeking postings that allow them to live and work closer together.
The extension applies specifically to mutual transfer applications across districts involving married couples in government schools. It provides an additional window for those who may not have completed the process within the earlier deadline.
The decision is likely to bring temporary relief to affected teachers as the transfer exercise continues under the revised schedule. With the new cut-off date in place, attention will now be on how many eligible couples are able to complete their applications by August 5.
