Article 14 Parity Principle | AYUSH Doctors' Retirement Age Extended to 67 Years at Par with Allopathic Doctors : Jharkhand HC

The Jharkhand High Court issued a writ of mandamus directing the state to extend the retirement age of AYUSH Medical Officers from 65 to 67 years, aligning them with allopathic doctors under Article 14. The court ordered notification within four months, preventing the petitioner's imminent superannuation at 65 and granting consequential benefits.
