The Election Commission has issued an advisory on postings and transfers of officials in the states, including Tamil Nadu, where assembly elections are scheduled to take place next year.

The advisory, which was issued ahead of the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, bars the state governments from posting officials to their home districts or where they have already served for a long period.

Officials should not be posted in their home districts or in places where they served long years.

Officials should not have served for three years in the last four years or completing three years on or before May 31, 2021, the advisory said.

Officials against whom the commission had recommended disciplinary action in the past and which is pending or which has resulted in a penalty should not be posted for any election related duties, the advisory said.
