This judgment in the centre: on the left the decisions it cites, on the right the decisions citing it. Colour is the treatment; choose a decision to open it.
1. The short question that comes for consideration in this instant appeal is whether in the impugned order dated 23rd June, 2025 the Single Bench would have deferred the transfer of the writ petitioner/appellant until a replacement to man the post of the writ petitioner/ appellant is found by nearby school.
2. This Court has decided the matter applying the ratio of Rupak Dhua Vs. The State of West Bengal & Ors. being judgement dated 31st July, 2025 and other decisions that the teachers for whom transfer is approved by the authorities need not wait till such time replacement is found.
3. In the light of the above, the District Inspector of Schools (SE), Purba Medinipur shall forward the writ petitioner’s/appellant’s application to the School Service Commission for appropriate orders and simultaneously
thereafter find a replacement in the resultant vacancy as expeditiously as possible.
4. The impugned order shall stand modified accordingly.
5. Hence, FMA
of is disposed of. Consequently, CAN 1 of 2025 is also disposed of.
6. There shall be no order as to costs.
7. All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court.
