Supreme Court has validated the Tamil Nadu Government Order that those who have studied in private nursing colleges may also be appointed in government hospitals.
Tamil Nadu government released an order on 18th January, 2012 that those who have studied in private nursing colleges may also be appointed in government hospitals and primary health centres.
Following this, there was a strong protest from the girl students studying in government nursing colleges. They proceeded to appeal in Chennai High Court. The sole judge who heard the appeal ordered in April, 2013 that that it should be withdrawn.
Following this, the case was appealed again on behalf of the students of private nursing colleges and the government.
Chief Judges Rajesh Kumar Agarwal & M. Sathyanarayanan heard the appeal and ordered that the Tamil Nadu.
Government order released on 18th January, 2012 will be valid.
The verdict confirmed that those who studied in private nursing colleges may be appointed in the government hospitals and primary health centres.
Subsequently, the students of government nursing colleges appealed to the higher court against this order. Supreme Court Judges Anil R. Dave & Kurien Joseph Arasu heard the appeal. Advocates N G Prasad & Sivabalamurugan appeared on behalf of the government nursing college students.
They put up the argument that the students joining government training colleges get trained in government hospital. Prior to this order, only students from government nursing colleges were appointed in government hospitals. Hence the new order should be withdrawn.
From the side of the students from private nursing colleges, the argument was that the state government has considered both private & government nursing colleges at the same level. This was confirmed by the Chennai High Court. If the current practice is continued, it will be a precedent for use in other services as well. This will create a disparity between the government & private college students.
After hearing the arguments, the judges observed that there is no such practice in the appointments of doctors whether they had studied in public or private establishments. Everybody should be considered on the same platform. It is only proper that equal chances must be given. Hence the government order is valid. The appeal was dismissed.
