    The Calcutta High Court disposed of the writ petition challenging the 2021 rejection of Mousumi Chatterjee's teacher transfer application based on "single subject teacher" grounds. The court found the rejection prima facie faulty and contrary to its prior judgments, but instead of quashing the original decision, directed the petitioner to file a fresh transfer application with the school authorities by 31.05.2026, which must be processed offline following the court's established precedents and disposed of by 31.07.2026.
