The State of West Bengal and Ors.

Mr. Sandipan Das Ms. Suparna Dutta ..for the petitioner Mr. Suman Basu ..for the Corporation It is the case of the petitioner that he was appointed as a "Welder" by Chandernagore Municipal Corporation on July 4, 2011. It is his grievance that he was terminated from his service with effect from March 5, 2022, without any valid reason.

Accordingly, WPA 25677 of 2022 is disposed of. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the learned advocates for the parties on usual undertakings.
