NAVI MUMBAI:

The move, announced by deputy municipal commissioner (Education) Sangharatna Khillare, aims to comply with the Maharashtra Government Transfers and Postings Regulation Act, 2005, which mandates rotational postings in government service.

The transfers, set to be finalized through counselling sessions on June 7, come just days before the start of the new academic year on June 16.

Students returning to school are likely to see new faces in the classroom, replacing familiar teachers they've known for years.

NMMC operates schools in multiple mediums, including newly launched CBSE institutions, and serves over 50,000 students from Class 1 to 10.

The corporation employs 660 teachers across its primary and secondary sections.
