 Every time departmental tests take place ... can teachers write DT's on OD?  Which DT's have the facility to write DTs on OD?  In particular, how often can teachers write departmental tests on OD?  Once?  Twice?  How many times has OD been written?  These are all questions ..


  Comprehensive information on DT's for most teachers and HMs 


 GO Ms No.10 SE Dept Dated 23.1.2009, 


 GO Ms No 20 SE Dept Dated 27.1.2009 


 And


 According to GO Ms No 23 Dated 28.1.2009

 4. Spl Language Test for the Officers of the Edn Dept in Hindi / Urdu of Lower Standard.

 (Exemption: Those who have read HINDI / URDU as a subject in SSC exam or equivalent or later levels are not required to write this test. Exception. We have studied Hindi or Urdu as compulsory as a second language in Tent. Therefore, Exemption from this test is applicable to almost everyone.)


 O.D Subject: 

 According to FR 9 (6) Sub- Rule (b) (iii) ....


 The period of attending the departmental tests which must be passed should be considered as duty.  It has no limit.  It should be considered as a duty many times ..! 


 For Optional Tests only  Only two times are considered as duty only.  If more than two, these tests have to be written on leave.


 Like OD for teachers ...


 SOT equivalent cadre, school assistant equivalent cadre teachers, EOT, GOT must dutifully pass the four tests for the grant of mechanical promotion scales ..!      

Therefore, all categories of teachers have unlimited on duty to write these two tests.  Are the other two departmental tests compulsory?  Isn't it  Is based on the qualifications of the respective teachers.  High school HMs and MEVs should look at the certificates and make a decision in this regard ._ *


 It is * fair * to give government-provided OD subsidy to job seekers and teachers to write Dep.Tests.
