Legal Question in Employment Law in India

my sister is employed as a TGT(sanskrit) teacher in a govt girls' school under delhi administration.she has completed 2 years+1 month of service,but not permanent yet.she is a divorcee.

since the beginning she faced extreme politics,back biting,targetting by the Vice principal (VP) and colleagues for minor faults,while all other colleagues who made similar mistakes were either not reported to the VP,or their mistakes were ignored.even her students know of her plight because they have seen her getting publically humiliated.

my sister is extremely simple,quiet girl,who bore all this silently for almost 1.5 years.she does not know how to fight and reply back.she is not cunning like others.she is too innocent,seedhi saadhi type.

now off late she has started asserting herself by complaining tio VP, or to incharge about misbehaving colleagues.my mother,in between telephoned the VP and one colleague requesting them to treat her in a dignified manner.my mum did not use any bad language.

still,this aggravated the situation further and my sister was threatened that complaint can be issued against her parents for interfering in school matters.

so as a result these people have united and the VP has been pressurising her to take a transfer in another school.

already she was depressed because of her divorce,but these threats have increased her stress levels.

if she does not agree,then they will make the entire staff sign papers that she and her parents have been harassing the staff,that her her work is not good,etc.

my sister does not want a transfer.all she wants is equal treatment and dignified treatment which other colleagues get.this is what she is asserting for.but people twist her statements that she creates scenes,which is false.

1. can you please guide us if the VP has any grounds to transfer her?

2. if yes,how can she evade the transfer?

3. whom should we contact?

please dont advise us to go for a transfer,because we have our own personal reasons NOT to take transfer.

Thanks..

Dear Sir / Madam,

1. If the terms of appointment provide that your sister's employment is transferable to any other school, it is well within the powers of the Vice Principal to order her transfer.

2. Your sister can meet the school trustees and explain her situation and request them to intervene and resolve the matter.

3. Refer answer in Point (2) above.

Regards,
