when chargesheet has been filed in the matter, then your writ petition filed under article 226 of the constitution of India becomes infructous and therefore now you are supposed to challenge the entire proceedings under section 482 Cr.P.C. before the concerned high court. Neverthless filing of discharge application is a remedy which you can avail whether you have approached the high court or not.

A discharge petition can be filed before the charge sheet is filed and the copies given to the accused and not after that.
