Patna High Court cites professor’s chronic kidney ailment, ‘fragile health’, stays transfer

Patna High Court cites professor’s chronic kidney ailment, ‘fragile health’, stays transfer

The Patna High Court has ordered Patliputra University to reevaluate an associate professor's transfer request, citing the professor's critical stage-5 chronic kidney ailment and fragile health. The court stayed the June 20 deputation order, which transferred the professor to a college farther from Patna without his consent. Associate Professor (Hindi) at M D College, Naubatpur, filed a plea challenging his deputation to Rajkiya Degree College, Ghoswari, and requested consideration of his transfer to a closer college due to his severe kidney condition.

The court acknowledged his serious illness, fragile health, and lack of prior consent for the transfer, directing the Vice Chancellor to handle the case sympathetically within two weeks.
