JUSTICE M.NAGAPRASANNA ORAL ORDER The petitioner is before this Court seeking the following prayer: "Issue a writ of mandamus directing the respondent to consider the representation/E-mail of the petitioner dated 17.02.2025 produced at Annexure-F and consequently direct the respondent to issue relieving letter to the petitioner." 2. The prayer of the petitioner is to set aside an order of termination passed by a private entity. Therefore, a writ under Article 226 of the Constitution of India would not lie as a private entity is not a State under Article 12 of the Constitution of India. The learned counsel for the petitioner further seeks to clarify that it is not the termination that is called in question but despite termination, the relieving letter is not issued. Even this grievance cannot be entertained at the hands of this Court as the writ itself could not be entertainable against a private entity. - 3 - NC: 2025:KHC:16243 WP No. 10466 of 2025 3. Leaving open the remedy available in law, the petition stands disposed. Ordered accordingly. Sd/- (M.NAGAPRASANNA) JUDGE RV List No.: 1 Sl No.: 123
