Mr. Ujjal Ray, .... For the Petitioner.

Affidavit-of-service filed on behalf of the petitioner be kept with the record.

The petitioner is an Assistant Teacher of the subject Geography (Pass) at Radhanagar High School, DistrictBirbhum, he applied for general transfer through 'Utsashree Portal' on the ground that the distance between his residence and the school since is more than 179 kilometres, he is unable to look after his aged ailing parents.

The West Bengal Central School Service Commission rejected the said application on the ground that the petitioner is the single teacher of the subject in the school. Mr. Ray, learned advocate for the petitioner strenuously argues that the ground of rejection is not sustainable. Be that as it may, the 'Utsashree Portal' is now under suspension, as such the prayer of the petitioner for general transfer cannot be considered at this stage.

W.P.A. 18388 of 2022 is therefore dismissed without any order as to costs.

Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties subject to compliance with all requisite formalities.
