The Assam Government has recently spoke on plans to transit contractual teachers into permanent status within the recruited schools. According to the reports, about 4,500 contractual teachers are working in various high schools and have the same pay scale as regular employees.

The Director of Secondary Education in Assam, Mamata Hojai said, “The contractual teachers who have been working in schools were given the benefits of permanent teachers. They can continue their jobs till they are 60 years of age along with other benefits like a regular teacher of the high school. The state government provided these facilities around three and half years ago.”

He continued saying, “After all these benefits already provided to those teachers, why should the government take additional steps of giving them regular appointments?”

Additionally, education departments officials of Assam have no plans to transit the recruited contractual teachers into permanent.
