Kingsuk Ghosh v. State Of West Bengal And ORS.

Ct. No.4 D/L 24.06.2026 (Naba) 33 W.P.S.T. 16 of 2026 Kingsuk Ghosh Vs.

The State of West Bengal & Ors.

Mr. Goutam Kr. Das, Mr. Sayan Datta, Mr. Indranuj Dutta ...for the Petitioner Ms. Chandreyi Alam, ld. A.G.P., Ms. Kakali Dutta ...the State Ms. Shraboni Sarkar, Ms. Umme Habiba Khatun ...for the PSC, WB 1.

The learned advocate for the writ petitioner submits that he would approach the Writ Court dealing with the determination of service matters. The prayer is made since the West Bengal Administrative Tribunal ('Tribunal' for short) is non-functional. Despite the Tribunal being nonfunctional, the petitioner filed an Original Application bearing O.A. No. 700 of 2025 before the Tribunal.

2.

The learned advocate for the writ petitioner also submits that since Tribunal is non-functional, the petitioner cannot even pray for withdrawal of the O.A. to facilitate filing of a writ petition. 3.

We, therefore, dispose of the Original Application bearing O.A. No. 700 of 2025 pending before the Tribunal.

4.

In view of the above circumstances and submissions, we grant liberty to the petitioner to

approach the Single Judge Bench for the selfsame relief. 5.

The Writ Petition is disposed of in the above terms.
