Considering the fact that the petitioner has straightway moved to this Court against the order of his removal from service without existing statutory alternative remedy and in process making the writ application not maintainable, if the petitioner now wants to file statutory appeal, this application can be permitted to be withdrawn with a liberty to the petitioner to avail the statutory remedy of appeal. It is ordered accordingly. Ranjan (Mihir Kumar Jha,J)
