Dr Sanjay Singh Chauhan And Others vs State Of Uttarakhand And Others on 3 April, 2018

In the case of Dr. Sanjay Singh Chauhan & Others vs. State of Uttarakhand and Others, WP No.484/2014 (S/B), which was disposed of by the Division of the Uttarakhand High Court vide order dated Page No.# 9/10 03.04.2018, Medical Officers (Ayurvedic) had sought parity of salary with their counterparts working as Allopathic doctors and Dental Medical Officers under the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) which has been re-named as NHM. The Division Bench held in the above case that the Ayurvedic doctors were discharging the same duties which are being discharged by the Allopathic Medical Officers and Dental Medical Officers. Further, the petitioners therein obtained their degrees from the recognized Institutions and there was no intelligible differentia, so as to distinguish the Ayurvedic doctors from the Allopathic and Dental Medical Officers. The Division Bench also held that though Ayurved and Allopathy are different streams of medicines, but these are to be treated as par with each other. The Division Bench thus directed the State respondents to pay and release the salary to the Ayurvedic Medical Officers at par with the Allopathic Medical Officers.
