On 15 May, the state personnel and administrative reforms department issued an order in connection with the transfer of Mr Baidya.
“I won’t comment anything about my transfer. I will get a salary from the PWD as usual, not from the ATI. I’m on medical leave for 14 days and will decide later whether I will join the NSATI,” Mr Baidya told The Statesman on Monday.
The state PWD minister Pulak Roy when contacted said: “I am busy in a meeting.”
