Petitioners challenged a government order classifying them under Hosiery Manufactory instead of Tailoring Industry. The High Court observed that a subsequent Government Order of Feb 6, 2018 superseded the grounds raised. Consequently, the writ petitions were closed without adjudication or order as to costs.
Writ petitions closed. No order as to costs.
