MAHENDER KUMAR Vs. STATE OF RAJASTHAN

JUDGEMENT

(1.) IN this writ petition, the petitioner has prayed for following relief :

(2.) THE main contention of learned counsel for the petitioner is that the provision for providing bonus marks to the candidates having experience on different posts is violative of Article 14 of the Constitution of India, so also, appointment cannot be made on the posts of Nurse Grade II while granting bonus marks up to 30 marks for three years' experience ­ 10 marks for each year. It is also submitted that the respondents are going to make recruitment in pursuance of the advertisement dated 26.02.2013 while giving complete good bye to the procedure laid down in the Rajasthan Medical & Health Subordinate Service Rules 1965.

(3.) ACCORDING to learned counsel for the petitioner, under Rule 19 of the Rules of 1965, the Commission or the appointing authority, as the case may be, shall scrutinise the applications received by them/it and require as many candidates qualified for appointment under these rules as seem to them/it desirable to appear before them/it for interview. The said provision is still in existence but, without any interview, the respondents are going to make appointment on the posts enumerated in the Schedule including the posts of Nurse (Grade II) while giving 30 bonus marks to the candidates having experience of work up to 3 years on different posts under different schemes and projects of the State Government upon similar work.
