Kolkata, Aug 26 (PTI) Teachers of state-aided colleges in West Bengal will soon be able to apply for transfers online, Education Minister Bratya Basu said on Friday.

At present, the transfer requests could only be submitted by visiting the Higher Education Department office, involving a time-taking process. Also, getting to know about vacancies in other colleges is cumbersome.
