The Madras High Court upheld a single judge’s Jan 19 order in favour of the government’s decision to grant incentive marks to doctors serving in villages and hilly areas
The Madras High Court on Thursday, dismissed appeals preferred against the State government’s decision to not only reserve 50% postgraduate medical seats for government doctors serving in villages and hilly areas, but to also provide incentive marks for them so that they could compete better even in the remaining 50% seats.
A Division Bench of Justices Paresh Upadhyay and Sathi Kumar Sukumara Kurup rejected the writ appeals preferred by a group of non-government service candidates and upheld the validity of a judgement passed by Justice M. Dhandapani on January 19 in favour of the decision taken by the government.
