The State of West Bengal & Ors.

Mr. Santanu Maji Ms. Debrani Mondal ... ... for the Petitioners Mr. Md. Sarwar Jahan Mr. Sk. Nayeemul Haque ... ... for the DPSC, Murshidabad Mr. Ratul Biswas Mr. Kaushik Chowdhury ... ... for the WBBPE Mr. Ranjan Saha ... ... for the DPSC, Paschim Medinipur Affidavit of service filed today be kept with the record.

The petitioners are working as primary teachers in their respective schools situated in two different districts. Petitioner no.1 is working in a primary school at Murshidabad. The application made by the petitioner no.1 through District Primary School Council, Murshidabad being respondent no.7 and 8, were not forwarded by the said respondent to the West Bengal Board of Primary Education being respondent no.4 in this application.

In respect of petitioner no.2, the application made by the petitioner no.2 has already been processed and is currently pending disposal before the West Bengal Board of Primary Education.

It is submitted that both the petitioners are confirmed primary teachers and they have made application seeking mutual transfer..

The grievance of the petitioners is that although the application is pending before the Secretary, West Bengal Board of Primary Education being respondent no.4, date no decision has been taken till date. The decision was not taken primarily because the District Primary School Council, Murshidabad had not forwarded the same to the West Bengal Board of Primary Education. Upon consideration of the submissions made on behalf of the parties and taking note of the documents placed before this Court, it appears that the mutual transfer application of the petitioner no.2 is pending before the respondent no.4 and the application of the petitioner no.1 is pending before the District Primary School Counsel, Murshidabad. The District Primary School Counsel, Murshidabad is requested to forward the application of the petitioner no.

1 to the West Bengal Board of Primary Education being the respondent no.4 herein and the respondent no.4 is requested to consider the application of the petitioners at the earliest, preferably within eight weeks from the date of communication of this order and the decision shall be communicated within a fortnight thereafter.
