    Summary: WPSB 367/2026 - Preeti Rawat v. State of Uttarakhand The High Court of Uttarakhand dismissed Preeti Rawat's challenge to her transfer from Government Post Graduate College, Jaiharikhal to Government Post Graduate Girls College, Haldwani. The court upheld the transfer as lawful under Section 10(a) of the Uttarakhand Annual Transfer for Public Servants Act 2017, noting she had completed over three years at the remote posting and met mandatory transfer criteria; the home district posting prohibition was permissible due to the Education Department's 2023 exemption. The court also prioritized student interest given two other Chemistry teachers had already been transferred.
