Thus, since the prayer of the writ petition is only for disposal of the representation, this writ petition has become infructuous. 3. At this stage, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that respondents are disputing the claim of the petitioner, but such dispute is ornamental and without any basis. He submits that there are several evidences and documents to suggest that the petitioner is entitled for the said amount. 4. Considering the submission of the parties, I am of the opinion that there are factual disputes between the parties which cannot be adjudicated in an application under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. Thus, the petitioner is at liberty to approach the appropriate Civil Court/Commercial Court for claiming the outstanding dues. 5. Accordingly, this writ petition stands disposed of.
