CCIM upgrades guidelines for colleges and teachers to address administrative disputes


In the wake of several disputes regarding the relieving/resigning of teachers from the colleges, the Central Council of Indian Medicine (CCIM) has upgraded its guidelines for the colleges and teachers. There are around 346 colleges under CCIM. 

CCIM is a statutory body under the Union Ayush ministry formed to develop institutions and regulate the practice of Indian Systems of Medicine (ISM). 
 
As per the notice issued to the colleges and teachers, CCIM has observed several disputes regarding the relieving/resigning of teachers from the colleges and it has become a serious hindrance for the upliftment of ISM education system. The CCIM also looked into the intensity of the problems faced by teachers as well as the college authorities while resigning/relieving from the college respectively. Various measures to curb the said issues have been taken from time to time and guidelines had been issued accordingly. However, the number of such applications about the disputes are increasing day by day. Therefore, it has been decided to upgrade the guidelines in view of the current scenario.

The main issues which are considered for redressal are difficulties faced by the teacher when he/she wants to resign from the college but the college management wants to retain the teacher in the college and vice-versa. Difficulties are also faced by the students due to the dispute between the teacher and college management.

Due care has been given while drafting these guidelines to cater to every dimension of the issues discussed and solutions have been arrived at to address the issues in an amicable way, CCIM stated.

As per the guidelines, colleges when appointing the teacher shall mandatorily follow the procedures. The appointment order shall be given in response of the application of the teacher for the said post after completion of the formal recruitment procedures. In the appointment order the following information shall be mandatorily mentioned such as full name and designation of the teacher on the date of appointment, permanent and current residential address of the teacher on the date of appointment, details of salary including mode of payment, notice period for resignation/relieving from the institution on co-terminus basis.

The teacher shall apply online to resign from the college through his profile by logging in using the credentials. The relieving of the teacher will be monitored online and will not be intervened by the CCIM.

The teacher will have an option to make application online for resignation from his/her respective institution. The said application for resignation will be forwarded online to the concerned college for necessary disposal but only with the option to agree with the request of teacher within 30 days or such number of days as per the terms of appointment order whichever is lesser.

If the college did not act on the application the teacher will be relieved automatically from the college online as per the notice period mentioned in the appointment letter or on completion of three months from the date of submission the resignation online whichever is lesser. The teacher may withdraw his application for relieving from the college with mutual consent with the college at any time within 30 days or such number of days as per the terms of appointment order whichever is lesser.

Therefore, in view of the above, any dispute between teacher and the college regarding non issuance of relieving or experience certificate, certificate of “No dues”, salary matters etc, shall be amicably settled by the teacher and college themselves within the stipulated period as mentioned.
