1. Affidavit-of-service filed on behalf of the petitioner is taken on record.
2. Heard the learned advocate for the petitioner.
3. The present writ petition arises out of an Original Application bearing O.A. No. 132 of 2026. The O.A. itself was filed when the West Bengal Administrative Tribunal (‘Tribunal’ for short) was non-functional. If the Tribunal was non- functional, the petitioners’ remedy was before the Writ Court (Single Judge Bench) dealing with the determination of service matters.
4. The learned advocate for the writ petitioner, thus, submits that he will avail the remedy in accordance with law.
5. In view of the above circumstances and submissions, we grant liberty to the petitioner to approach the Single Judge Bench for the self-

same relief after giving an undertaking that the petitioner will withdraw the Original Application bearing O.A. No. 132 of 2026 pending before the Tribunal.
6. The Writ Petition is disposed of in the above terms.
