(2.) The brief facts as noticed by this Court are that the petitioners are having qualification of General Nursing and Midwifery (GNM) and being registered in Rajasthan Nursing Council were aspiring for being recruited on the post of Nurse Grade-II. Vide notification dated 06.02.2013, the State Government amended Rule 19 of the Rules of 1965 and has inserted a proviso with regard to award bonus marks. The State Government in pursuance of the aforesaid notification dated 06.02.2013 has issued an order dated 27.10.2013. The said order dated 27.10.2013 as well as proviso to Rule 19 of the Rules of 1965 read as under: "Provided that in case of appointment to the posts other than Pharmacist, which are not in the purview of the Commission, merit shall be prepared by appointing authority on the basis of marks obtained in such qualifying academic examination or professional examination or both as specified in the schedule appended to these rules and such bonus marks as may be specified by the State Government having regard to the length of experience on similar work under the Government, National Rural Health Mission and Medicare Relief Society."
(3.) The bonus marks was to be accordingly given and the State Government stipulated 10 bonus marks for a particular year and maximum 30 bonus marks for the experience. The advertisement dated 26.02.2013 inviting applications for the post of Nurse Grade-II Public Health Nurse and Women Health Worker which is Annexure-3 was initiated. The grievance of the petitioners is that while the advertisement read with Rule 19 required the respondents to extend 10 bonus marks for each year up to 30 bonus marks but the respondents have failed to do so.;
