Mr. K.P.Bhattacharjee, learned GA appearing for the respondents, does not object to the prayer made by the writ petitioner. 4. It is seen from the materials that have been placed that the writ petitioner is yet to acquire any vested right to claim for appointment to the said post, and further, with regard to the inaction of the police authorities, the writ petitioner also has other remedies to resort to before approaching this Court. However, be that as it may, it is directed that the complaints dated 08-08-2024 and 03-09-2024, be looked into by the respondent No. 2 expeditiously. 5. As ordered, matter stands closed and disposed of. Judge 2025:MLHC:1058 Digitally signed by SAMANTHA ANNA LIYA RYNJAH Date: 2025.11.04 06:29:58 IST
