J U D G M E N T Kurian Joseph, J. The writ petition is filed mainly with the following prayer :- “Issue a writ of mandamus or appropriate writ or order or direction compelling and commanding the respondent Nos.1 and 2 to afford adequate necessary and effective police protection for the petitioner's coir manufacturing unit and its business, without any obstructions or hindrances from the respondent Nos.4 to 6 or its members.” This court has already issued an interim order dated 17.2.2009 in terms of the prayer extracted above. Learned Government Pleader submits that effective steps have already been taken by the police. It is also submitted that the parties have been relegated to pursue their grievance before the Labour Court. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of in terms of the interim order making it clear that in case the petitioner makes a request before the police for protection, the same shall be granted.
