"21. According to learned Government Pleader, the seniority lists of the

Schools Assistants at District level were prepared for Ranga Reddy District and 12
other districts, which comes under Multi Zone-II. Thereafter, an integrated seniority
list, dated 26.09.2023, was prepared in accordance with Rules 33 and 34 of the
Telangana State and Subordinate Service Rules and also a list of eligible candidates in
Multi Zone-Il was prepared in the ratio of 1:3 on 26.09.2023, in accordance with Rule
6 of the Telangana State and Subordinate Service Rules. The said list was uploaded
on the official website of the Director of School Education, Telangana, Hyderabad
(https: //schooledu.telangana.gov.in),and sufficient time was provided until
04.10.2023 for the concerned parties to submit their objections, if any. However, no
objections were received from any candidates including the petitioners herein.
Therefore, the respondents have finalized the said seniority list in accordance with the
Rules, to effect promotions to the post of Gazetted Head Master Grade-Il. Here, it is
pertinent to note that since there are limited vacancies available for the post of
Gazetted Head Master Grade-II in Multi Zone-ll, the respondents have taken the cut-
off date of appointment for promotions, as 24.01.2002 only. Hence, the candidates
who were appointed prior to the said date i.e., 24.01.2002, are only eligible for
promotion to the post of Gazetted Head Master Grade-II. Admittedly, the petitioners
herein were appointed in the cadre of School Assistants after 2002 only. Therefore,
they are not eligible for promotion to post of Gazetted Head Master Grade-II.

22. Admittedly, out of the eight petitioners who filed the main writ petition,
petitioner Nos.2, 3, 4 and 6 have withdrawn the petition vide order dated 1 1 .$.2A24
in I.A.No.4 of 2023 in W.P.No.2573l of 2023.Further, it is relevant to note that
learned counsel appearing for the petitioners has raised many other issues in the writ
 petition, which require further adjudication and the same may be adjudicated during
final hearing of the main writ petition.

23.|n view of the aforesaid discussion, these interlocutory applications are

disposed of and the interim orders passed by this Court on 14.09.2023 and20.09.2023
are hereby modified with a direction to the official respondent Nos.l to 3 to proceed
with the promotions to the post of Gazetted Head Master Grade-II in Multi zone-Il, on
the basis of the seniority list dated 26.09.2023, as per their schedule issued
inRc.No.565/Trans/Ser.lY12022 dated 01.09.2023. Further, to protect the interests of
the remaining four petitioners i.e., petitioner Nos.1,5,7atd 8, as an interim measure,
the respondents are directed to keep four posts of Gazetted Head Master Grade-II
vacant, in Multi Zone-L[."

Further, sti. s. c"pi Krirhnu, SA (Phy. i"i.l una (04) others of Ranga
L,rU-iiiiui
Reddy district have approached the Hon'ble High Court and filed W.P No. 28043 of 2O23
with a prayer to not to transfer them without affecting promotions and also to send back the
School Assistants / S.G.Teachers transferred to Ranga Reddy district in excess to quota Rule.
In this regard, the Hon'ble High Court has passed the following interim orders dt.06.t0.2O23
in W.P No.s 28066 of 2023,28068 of 2023 and28043 of 2023:

"Having regard to the submissions made and in the facts and circumstances of
the case, the respondents are direc:ti,.d not to effect transfers to the cadre of
School Assistants/S.G.Teachers in Ranga Reddy District till the seniority lists
are finalized after duly sending back the School Assistants/S.G.Teachers
transferred to Ranga Reddy District in excess to quota-rota Rule, till
19.I0.2023 "

Further, I submit that, Sri. S. Rajeshwar Rao & 150 others have filed W.P No. 12410 of
2024 inthe Hon'ble High Court and accordingly, the Hon'ble High Court have made interim
orders dt.02.05.2024with a direction to consider the petitioners for promotion to the post of
School Assistants in their respective subjects without insisting for passing of Teacher

Eligibility Test (TET) Examination, as and when promotions take place.

The details of the number of promotions to be taken up are submitted as follows:

sl. No. of promotions to be

Name of the post
No. taken up
1 Head Master Gr.-II 763
2 School Assistants 5123
J Primary School Head Master 2t30
Completing the promotions to the Upgraded posts of
4 Language Pandits and PETs as School Assistant 10479
(Languages) and School Assistant (Phy. Edn.)
Total 1849s
 Further. I submit that. keeping in view of the large cadre strength of the teachers
working in the State in Government and Local Body managements, the Teacher Transfers
and Promotions were earlier taken up through Online mode, so as to ensure that the postings

issued to the teachers in the transfer / promotion counseling are accurate and error free,
without any human intervention and also in an efficient and transparent manner.
Since all the aforesaid court cases are now cleared, except W.P.No.28043 of 2023 and
batch cases in respect of Ranga Reddy district only, since the court has directed not to effect
transfers to the cadre of School Assistant / SGTs in Ranga Reddy District till the seniority list
are frnalized after duly sending back the School Assistant / SGTs transferred to Ranga Reddy
District in excess to quota-rule, I request the Government kindly to permit to take up the
exercise of Transfers & Promotion Counselling to the Head Masters Gr.-II (Gazetted) and
teachers working in the State except Rangareddy district in accordance with rules through
online mode, as per the directions of the Hon'ble High Court, in the following Schedule, to
