¶7

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, Mr. Gaurav Bishan, Advocate holding brief of Mr. Tej Bhan Singh, learned counsel for the respondentBSA and learned Standing Counsel for the State-respondents.

¶8

The bunch of petitions dealing with the same issue has already been heard by this Court. This Court is of the considered opinion that, in pursuance of the order dated 23.05.2025, few teachers have already been transferred, pursuant to which they have joined on 01.07.2025. Therefore there was no occasion for issuance of another Government Order dated 14.11.2025 for transferring number of teachers to maintain students teachers ratio. The issuance of the another Government Order has resulted in a chaotic situation, hence, in these circumstances, interference is required by this Court.

¶9

Let this matter be posted, as fresh, on 18.02.2026.

¶10

Till then, status quo as on date shall be maintained by the parties.
