**********

A petrol pump engaged in pumping oil, washing and servicing vehicles would be covered by the expression 'manufacturing process' as defined by section 2(12) of the ESI Act. Petrol Pump and service station are work places where persons are employed and power is used in the process of its activities. There is no material difference from the other activities of a manufacturing place strictly so-called. A very narrow construction Lo· the definition of 'manufacturing process' so as to restrict its application only to a work place where by virtue of the manufacturing process a commercially different article is produced, would be unjustified. In the .case of ~ service station, washing, cleaning or oiling a car brings about a particular result in either as a lubricated or cleaned vehicle. That result itself shall be treated as enough to bring the process within the meaning of the Act.
