In-spite of Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's open declaration before public to curb the unabated growth of transfer industry, same is minting huge money for higher ups of the department and for Government representatives.
According to the recently transferred Assistant professors of colleges, on March 12, 2013 under Government order 120-HE of 2013, out of total 101, 20 have secured their posting within city limits, while out of total 60 professors of Jammu region, 13 have secured their postings within 20 kilometers of city, depending upon the size of amount given by them. It has been learnt that around Rs. 60 Lakhs have allegedly been exchanged in the transfer of these 101 candidates.
As per list published the candidates who secured their postings within Jammu city are Tabasum Ara who has been transferred from COE Jammu to WC Parade, Parveen Akhter from WC Parade to COE, Jammu, Poonam Kamotra from WC Parade to GGM Science College, Anita Jamwal from WC Gandhi Nagar to GDC Paloura, BB Anand from GDC Paloura to WC Parade, Desh Bandhu Sharma has been transferred from GGM Science College and posted at MAM College, Pankaj Bandoria from MAM College to GGM Science College, Ranu Bala from COE Jammu to MAM College, Satish Kumar from MAM College to COE Jammu, Nisha Bhagat from GDC Paloura to WC Parade, Meenakshi Thakur from WC Parade to GDC Paloura, Mumta Gupta from WC Parade to Commerce College and Jyotshana Mohan from Commerce College to WC Parade.

An Assistant Professor seeking not to be named said that as per transfer policy, one has to serve two years in peripheries, following which 3 years in city. "For securing transfer in city limits, the bribe rate allegedly varied between Rs. 80,000 to Rs. 1 Lakh. "Those who were serving in city limits and wanted not to go in peripheral colleges, have to give same amount for getting their postings at RS Pura and Akhnoor," he alleged, adding that in the recent transfers, around Rs. 60 Lakhs have been exchanged.
He further said that most of the candidates who have secured their postings in cities belonged to affluent families, and these city colleges have become rehabilitation centers for wives and for near and dear ones of wealthy families, politicians and bureaucrats.
Another professor also alleged that it was the grim reality in Colleges and schools, where one must pay huge bribes for their transfers within cities, but the deserving candidates never get their postings within city limits, even after serving for decades in peripheries.

Even the items such as cakes in which eggs are used were never tasted by my mother. It is unimaginable to think of cooking any non-vegetarian food in our family kitchen.  Even raw meat was never brought inside our house.   All family members including my mother, late father, one brother out of four, all sister-in-laws and children are so far vegetarian except me and two other elder brothers.

The sanctification of the family kitchen was so much maintained by my mother that whenever we would skip dinner, it was obvious that we would eat meat.
