As a lecturer in a government polytechnic, I’ve completed the eight years of experience needed for promotion to Senior Lecturer. However, my former principal hasn’t submitted my annual performance reports for two years, leaving my promotion pending. How can I get my promotion approved in this situation?

You can file a grievance petition with the higher authorities of your department, citing the delay in your promotion due to the missing performance reports. Additionally, you can also approach the relevant authorities in the state government, requesting intervention to expedite the process and have your promotion approved.
