On perusal of the memo of writ petition, it is reflected that the present writ petition has been filed by the petitioner against Yes Bank Limited, which is admittedly a private bank, having no deep and pervasive financial or administrative control of the Government, nor has been engaged in discharging any sovereign activities. 3. In view of above, the respondents- Yes Bank Limited does not fall within the definition of State as given under Article 12 of the Constitution of India.

For the reasons mentioned in above, the writ petition filed by the petitioner is totally misconceived, and is not maintainable and the same is hereby dismissed. 5. It is made clear that dismissal of this writ petition would not curtail the rights of the petitioner to avail the alternative remedies as per law. 6.
