Ramachandran Nair,J. Petitioners are challenging Government orders declaring clinics run by doctors as covered by the Shops and Commercial Establishments Act. It is seen that a Division Bench of this Court in O.P.No. 17745 of 1994 and connected cases held that later Government order granted exemption to clinics. In the circumstances these O.Ps. are also closed leaving freedom to the petitioners to approach this court, if they have any grievance later. (C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR) Judge.
