Transfer Policy: Every youth dreams of getting a government job. Many people pass the exam after working hard for years, but as soon as they get the job, they get a big shock when they are posted in some other city or state instead of their hometown. This happens often in banks, railways, army, paramilitary forces, IAS, IPS and many central government departments.

A question arises in the minds of many youth that why does the government not provide posting in their own city? Actually there are many big reasons behind this. The government wants employees to experience working everywhere and not be limited to any one area. Especially in jobs like police, administration and banks, this rule is kept so that the work can be done in a fair manner and there is no favoritism of any kind. In central government jobs, posting can be given anywhere in the country.

Rules made to prevent fair work and corruption

In many departments, the biggest reason for not giving posting near one’s home is considered to be impartiality. If an officer or employee is posted in the same area where his relatives, friends or acquaintances live, then the decisions may be affected. For this reason, employees in jobs like police, administration and tax department are sent to other districts or states.

At the same time, the rules of transfer and posting at different places in Railways, Banks and Paramilitary Forces are quite old. In forces like Army and CRPF, soldiers are deployed in different areas of the country so that the security system remains strong everywhere. However, a new system of giving posting to CRPF jawans closer to home was started in the year 2014. At that time, CRPF had decided to keep the soldiers around their “home zones” so that they could stay close to their families and stress was reduced.

Need of employees in every state and city is also a big reason

Government departments work all over the country. In such a situation, employees are needed everywhere. If all the people are given posting near their homes, then employees will not be available in many remote areas. This is the reason why employees in railways, postal department, banks and government hospitals are sent to different states and districts. Many times the youth initially get worried about going away from home. It is not easy to live in a new language, new environment and distance from family. But with time this experience helps them in both their work and life. Many employees later take transfer and come closer to their state or city. The government also keeps working on rules like giving posting to husband and wife at the same station.

Some departments are giving relief in changing times

Now with time some departments have started understanding the problems of the employees. Many government organizations are trying not to send employees to long distances, especially women and employees with families. At the same time, in some departments, the facility of home state posting is also given in a limited form.

Despite this, the truth remains that serving the country is considered the biggest responsibility in a government job. Employees are sent wherever they are needed. This is the reason why a government job demands not only comfort but also responsibility and sacrifice.
