Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to grant appointment to the respondents as Unani Dispensers, despite the State of Haryana's contention that the respondents lacked the requisite Diploma in Unani Dispenser as per the Haryana Ayurvedic/Homeopathic and Unani Technical Group (C) Service Rules, 1997. The Court emphasized that the qualifications listed in the advertisement were sufficient for eligibility, and the denial of appointment was unjustified. Consequently, the appeals by the State were dismissed, affirming the High Court's order to appoint the respondents.
