JUDGMENT
The writ petition is filed to direct the respondents to return the vehicle bearing registration No. KL-04-AR-1181 to the petitioner.
2. On a perusal of the writ petition, I find that the respondents are a private finance company.
3. Going by the law laid down by this Court in Mathew Ignitious V. The Catholic Syrian Bank ( 2019 (4) KLT 597 ), I am of the view that the respondents do not fall within the purview of Article 12 of the Constitution of India. Therefore, the writ petition is not maintainable.
Resultantly, the writ petition is dismissed without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to work out his remedies in accordance with the law.
