Chandigarh, June 22 (IANS) The Haryana Cabinet, presided over by Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, on Monday approved the Model Online Transfer Policy (MOTP) and the Teachers Transfer Policy (TTP) to ensure optimal utilisation of human resources, promote employee satisfaction, enhance administrative efficiency and strengthen public service delivery.

Under the new policies, employee ranking for transfer purposes will be determined through a revised 120-point composite scoring framework. The weightage assigned to age has been reduced from 75 to 25 per cent. 

A new parameter, “Experience in Cadre”, has been introduced with 25 per cent weightage, while special factors have been enhanced from 25 to 50 per cent, giving greater consideration to employees facing genuine hardships.

The list of recognised debilitating diseases has been expanded to include muscular dystrophy, Behçet disease and specified organ transplant cases such as pancreas and bone marrow transplants. Importantly, no employee or teacher within one year of superannuation will be transferred without explicit written consent.

The Cabinet also approved directions regarding colonies under the Municipal Council of Yamuna Nagar and Jagadhari, where buildings were regularised in 1996. 

The issue surfaced in 2021–22 when the Urban Local Bodies Department introduced an online no-dues certificate portal integrated with GIS-mapped property data. 

Colonies regularised before 2005 lacked authentic layout plans and ‘khasra’ details, making accurate mapping impossible. As a result, vacant or unmapped plots were automatically classified as “unapproved.”

Additionally, the Cabinet approved promulgation of the Haryana State Commission for Women (Amendment) Ordinance, 2026, amending Section 3 (2) (b) of the Haryana State Commission for Women Act, 2012, to increase the number of non-official members from five to seven.
