6 01.09.2026 S.Seal Ct.9. CALCUTTA HIGH COURT IN THE CIRCUIT BENCH AT JALPAIGURI APPELLATE SIDE WPA 1756 of 2026 Ruhul Islam Versus The State of West Bengal & Ors. Mr. Aninda Bose Mr. Santanu Maji Mr. Jogesh Roy … For the petitioner. Mr. Abhijit Raha Ms. Somdutta Patra … For State. Mr. Bikramaditya Ghosh …For the Primary Board. 1. The petitioner had approached this Court to compel the authorities by issuing a writ of mandamus, to take action on the petitioner’s application for general transfer made through the online portal Utshashree. 2. Records would reveal that the application for transfer was made by the petitioner and the copy of the status of the aforesaid application has also been produced. From the aforesaid disclosure made by the petitioner’s advocate, it would transpire that the petitioner’s application had been initially processed on 14th August, 2026, subsequently, on 25th August, 2026 the same has been forwarded by the DPSC Secretary to the West Bengal Board of Primary Education. 2 3. Going by the above disclosure, it would appear that the petitioner had approached this Court in haste. The application is under process. At this stage, Mr. Basu, learned Advocate representing the petitioner would submit that the petitioner had made two several applications for transfer, the first of such application for transfer was made on 23rd July, 2026. Subsequently, the second application for transfer has been made. 4. Having heard the learned Advocates for the respective parties without entering into any controversy, in my view, if a subsequent application has been made by the petitioner, the respondents cannot be directed to process consecutive applications filed by the petitioner. 5. Be that as it may, considering the fact that the petitioner’s application of transfer has already been processed by the respondents, in my view, there is no scope to issue any further direction on the respondents at this stage as the respondents have already taken steps in this matter. 6. Accordingly, the writ petition stands disposed of. 7. There shall no order as to costs. Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for be given to the parties upon compliance with the requisite formalities. (Raja Basu Chowdhury, J.)
