SRI.ABRAHAM P. MEACHINKARA.,SC SRI. P.G. PRAMOD,SPL.GOVERNMENT PLEADER THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 19.12.2024, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
CR
The state's imposition of compulsory bonded service for M.Sc. Nursing students is a valid and binding condition necessary for maintaining educational standards in nursing, upheld by applicable legal precedents.
Headnote:(A) Constitution of India - Article 162 - Government Order dated 11.07.2024 - Compulsory service for M.Sc. Nursing students challenged on grounds of legality and arbitrariness, stating the notifications impose conditions undisclosed at admission - The court affirmed the imposition of the bonded service was a legitimate state interest in maintaining educational standards and that the petitioners were notified of potential obligations upon admission, thus binding them to fulfill the service obligations. (Paras 4, 12, 21, 22)
(B) The petitioners, pursuing M.Sc. Nursing, claimed Ext.P1 imposed burdensome conditions regarding compulsory service, allegedly violating their fundamental rights. They contended that they were not aware of such a requirement when they enrolled. (Paras 1-6)
(C) The court reiterated the importance of fulfilling agreements made upon admission, emphasizing that the imposition aligns with the state's educational policies and professional norms governing nursing. The petitioners were advised on grounds to petition for increased stipends separately. (Paras 20-24)
(D)
Result: Writ Petition disposed of, with the court highlighting the petitioners' obligations based on the Prospectus and clarifying financial matters outside the court's purview.
JUDGMENT
Dated this the 19th day of December, 2024
The petitioners are M.Sc. Nursing Degree Course students under the academic batches 2022-2024 and 2023- 2025. They are currently pursuing their Post Graduate Degree Course. They have approached this Court seeking to quash Ext.P1 Notification issued by respondents 1 and 2 and to direct the 2nd respondent to allow the petitioners’ request to make the compulsory bonded service optional. The petitioners also seek to direct the 1st respondent to systematically raise the stipend for the compulsory service in a decent manner in comparison to the salaries paid to the Assistant Professors with the same qualification as of the petitioners.
2. The petitioners state that M.Sc. Nursing Course is a Two Year Degree Course having examinations on yearly basis for two academic years. The 7th respondent-University has the authority to lay syllabus in the matter of academics, training period and award of Certificates. The 9th respondent- Indian Nursing Council oversees the standards of education, registration and working environment of nurses in the country.
3. Government of Kerala published Ext.P1 Government Order dated 11.07.2024. In Ext.P1, it has been stated that Compulsory Service will be optional to the students admitted for M.Sc. Nursing Course in Government Colleges of Nursing. If Government desires to implement Compulsory Service, every student is bound to do the same. The petitioners are challenging the above provision.
4. The petitioners state that few of the students from the Government Nursing Colleges of Kannur and Kottayam addressing their difficulties relating to this Bonded Service submitted Ext.P5 representation to the 3rd respondent. The petitioners state that they were made to sign a bond attached as Annexure-II along with respective Prospectus of the years 2023 and 2024. The bond executed was relating to the completion of the course without violating Rules and Regulations and was not related to any complusory bonded service. The petitioners put up the issue to their official association also, as can be seen from Ext.P8.
5. The petitioners, who graduated four year B.Sc. Nursing Degree Course and had been working in different hospitals, were drawing salary at the range from 30,000/- to ₹ 50,000/-. They are mostly middle aged women and men, married, with kids and living separated from their family, staying in College Hostels. The M.Sc. Nursing Degree academics require sleepless hours, four hours of classes and eight hours of hospital service, six days per week, without vacation or leave.
6. The petitioners joined the course with an intention to accelerate their career prospectives and to improve their family standard of living by joining high paying jobs in India or in Hospitals abroad. Ext.P1 imposing Bonded Service is highly arbitrary and illegal, contended the petitioners. The counsel for the petitioners pointed out that Ext.P1 Government Order was issued on 11.07.2024. The petitioners had joined the Course earlier to that. Therefore, Ext.P1 cannot be made applicable to the petitioners.
7. The enforcement of the Bonded System is without any prior notice and without even providing any information before hand to the petitioners. Though the Prospectus gave power to the Government to implement bonded service system, the Prospectus did not provide as to the length of the bonded service or as to the honorarium or the allowances to be paid during the bonded service. In fact, the petitioners have not executed any bond. As long as the petitioners have not executed bond, they cannot be forced merely on the basis of a condition in the Prospectus. Ext.P1 is therefore highly arbitrary and is liable to be quashed, contended the petitioners.
8. The 2nd respondent filed a counter affidavit. The 2nd respondent submitted that it was clearly stipulated in the Prospectus that if the Government desires to implement Compulsory Service, every student is bound to do the same. The Government has decided to ma
