Biswajit Jana v. State Of West Bengal And ORS.

22. 02. 2022 BP Sl. 297 Court No. 17 WPA 1229 of 2022 (Via Video Conference) Biswajit Jana Vs.

The State of West Bengal & Ors.

Mr. Ujjal Roy ..for the petitioner.

Dr. Sutanu Kumar Patra Ms. Supriya Dubey ..for SSC.

Mrs. Chama Mukherjee Mr. Sayan Ganguly ..for the State.

The petitioner submits that he filed one application for transfer through Utsoshree portal on 14.08.2021. He has further submitted that his transfer application has been returned back to him on the ground of single teacher from the end of School Service Commission. Before amendment of the 2015 Rules for general transfer the guiding principle would be 2015 Rules and not the amended Rules of 2021 which came into effect in September, 2021 as the petitioner made an application on 14th August, 2021.

Hence, I set aside the decision of the School Service Commission returning back the application by stating the ground for returning back as single teacher

and I direct the School Service Commission to consider the matter afresh in terms of the Rules of 2015 for General Transfer. This is to be done within a period of three weeks from the date of communication of this order.

With this observation and direction, this writ application is disposed of.
