N. NAGARESH, J
JINASH BABU.N.T – Appellant
Versus
STATE BANK OF INDIA – Respondent
WP(C) NO. 3666 OF 2026

Withdrawal of writ petition allows for relief before appropriate forum without affecting the petitioner’s rights.

Headnote:The Writ Petition was filed to challenge the order of dismissal against the petitioner, a former employee of the respondent. The petitioner sought to withdraw the petition with liberty to agitate the issue before an appropriate forum. The court granted the liberty and dismissed the petition as withdrawn. The pivotal question was whether the petitioner could challenge the dismissal order in an alternate forum. The court reasoned that allowing withdrawal with liberty was appropriate in this case. The Writ Petition is dismissed as withdrawn.
