The Supreme Court examined whether Nursing Assistants working under the Border Security Force are entitled to Nursing Allowance equivalent to Staff Nurses, as claimed by the respondents. The High Court had held in favor of the respondents, allowing their claim for Nursing Allowance. The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision, emphasizing the entitlement of Nursing Assistants to the same allowance as Staff Nurses based on their duties and status. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the respondents' rights to the Nursing Allowance.
