Case Summary: Paramjit Kaur v. State of Punjab (C.A. No. 005584-005585/1999) The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's dismissal and allowed the appellants' appeals on November 7, 2000. The Court held that the appellants—150 candidates selected based on academic qualifications under a 2.1.1995 order for Multi Purpose Health Worker (Female) positions—retained their appointment rights despite a subsequent 19.12.1995 order that only permitted other appointees (beyond 150) to continue until fresh selection. The Court directed that appellants qualifying within the 150 advertised posts be appointed pursuant to the 2.1.1995 order, finding the High Court had erroneously interpreted the later order as superseding the earlier one.
