The Jammu and Kashmir government has undertaken a significant administrative reshuffle by transferring two Chief Education Officers (CEOs) in the School Education Department. This order, issued on Wednesday, aims to enhance governance and operational efficiency within the educational sector.
In the latest changes, Mohammad Hafiz, who previously served as the Chief Education Officer in Doda, has now taken charge as the in-charge CEO for Rajouri. This transition comes as part of the government’s strategy to ensure that educational administration aligns more closely with community needs and local conditions.
Meanwhile, Iqbal Hussain, formerly in charge of CEO Rajouri, has been reassigned as the in-charge CEO for Doda. Such strategic placements reflect the government’s commitment to maintaining effective educational oversight across regions.
Authorities in Jammu and Kashmir believe that these changes will facilitate improved administrative effectiveness within the School Education Department. By rotating leadership positions, the government aims to address unique challenges each district faces in delivering quality education.
These transfers also represent the government’s continuous efforts to enhance the educational framework and stakeholder engagement. Amidst ongoing reforms in the education sector, officials expect these CEO appointments will lead to innovative strategies addressing both student learning outcomes and infrastructural development.
The decision to transfer and post the two CEOs aligns with broader initiatives in Jammu and Kashmir seeking to empower education leaders and drive policies that foster academic excellence.
