The petitioners are possessing the qualifications of GNM and B.Sc. (Nursing). They have applied for the post of Nurse / Health worker (Female).  However, their names were not included in the waiting list.

HELD that the candidates with Auxiliary Nurse Midwife alone are eligible for the post of Nurse.  The petitioners are eligible for the post of Staff Nurse and not on the post of Auxiliary Nurse Midwife.   The courses of ANM, GNM and B.Sc. (Nursing) are different and their eligibility, duration and curriculum are not similar.   Even though the qualifications of GNM and B.Sc. (Nursing) are higher qualifications, they cannot perform the duties of ANM and therefore, ANM cannot be eligibility for appointment of Auxiliary Nurse Midwife.

Judgment dated 27.3.2026 of the High Court of Bombay, Bench at Nagpur, in Writ Petition No.6482 of 2024 of Amisha Vinod Sheware and others  Vs.  The State of Maharashtra and others with connected writ petitions.
