Respected Sir/Madam,
I am a Contractual (renewable after every 6 months and can terminate any time) Lecturer in Electrical Engineering at Asansol Polytechnic (Govt. of WB) and now pay a remuneration of Rs.21,400/- p.m. (Basic Pay only).
From beginning of this job, I was posted at BPCIT (Govt. of WB). After 9½ years there, for nothing I was transferred to Asansol Polytechnic more than 3½ years ago. BPCIT was 200 kms. away from home and approx. 6 hours journey in one way in different modes and Asansol Polytechnic is 300 kms. away from home and approx. 8½ hours journey in one way in different modes.
I am from a very rural area. In both cases, I was/am bound to stay at working place alone.
Repeatedly, I did apply before, through proper channel (in both times) for a nearby posting without any good result. Almost all other contractual lecturers are either posted near to home or who were at somewhat away are transferred to nearby their homes.
From beginning we are paid remuneration equal to Basic Pay at that time only. Work load is very heavy.
I had written to the Hon’ble National Human Rights Commission. They replied with refusal to interfere as it is a service matter. Earlier West Bengal Human Rights Commission did not reply even.
In home, I have ailing father (80+), mother dead, wife (home maker), daughter (XII, Science) and son (class V). They are insecure at night and daughter very good in education lacking guide. Authority knows these very well through my transfer applications.
I am also over 50. As job situation in West Bengal is very very grim, I am not able to leave it.
If I move to West Bengal Administrative Tribunal (acute shortage of judges) praying nearby transfer, it will take very prolong time possibly without result.
May I move to suitable civil/criminal court praying justice to make an end of such type of gross harassment ?
Please do advice. Thank you.

Attempt to convince the authority that can transfer you.
Check with employees unions on rules, if any, that apply in your case;

Only political / administrative push up may fetch early desired results.
legal path may instigate to discontinue your contract.
explore the scope to keep your family with you, it would solve most of you problems.
