Case Summary: State of Rajasthan v. Joshna Jonadhan Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed the State of Rajasthan's appeal and set aside the High Court's order that granted respondents an option to remain on the medical side of nursing services. The court found the "option" provision lacked legal sanction under the Rajasthan Medical & Health Subordinate Service Rules, 1965, and was impermissible. No costs were awarded. Background: The dispute involved the 1982 amendment to the Rules that reclassified Auxiliary Nurse Midwives (ANMs) from the medical side to a health side Group A-1, changing their designation to health workers (female). The respondents challenged this placement, arguing they had lost promotion opportunities on the medical side.
