In that view of the matter, the writ petitioner shall be entitled to apply for general transfer on special ground under the Rules of 2015. Upon receipt of the application, the Head of the Institution, D.I. of Schools and the CSSC, shall act strictly in terms of the said Rules, 2015, and consider the petitioner's application for general transfer in terms thereof.

The recommendation of the Nibedita Sinha Sarkar is kept with the record.

With the aforesaid observations, the writ petition shall stand disposed.
