Authority: High Court of Jharkhand at Ranchi
Order Date: 05 October 2026
Case Overview
- Petitioner: Sahid Ahmad, resident of Birda, Karra, Khunti, owner of Aman Nursing Home, a clinical establishment registered under Section 15 of the Clinical Establishment (Registration Regulation) Act.
- Respondents: State of Jharkhand and Assistant Sub‑Inspector Dipak Kanth Kumar.
- The petitioner filed a writ application seeking a direction to unseal and unlock the premises of his nursing home, alleging that the establishment had been sealed without notice.
- An FIR was lodged and a surprise inspection uncovered that the petitioner was practicing allopathic medicine without any supporting documents, leading to police case No. 93/2025 in Karra Police Station.
- The State filed a counter‑affidavit stating that the police had not sealed the premises; consequently, the petitioner’s relief became redundant.
Final Outcome
- The Court held that, in view of the State’s affidavit, no cause of action existed for the writ petition and therefore disposed of the application, dismissing the petition.
