Justice Manju Rani Chauhan passed the order on August 7 in a petition challenging a June 19 order by the government authorities who had rejected her claim for maternity leave for her fourth child.
The petitioner argued that she had not availed maternity leave when her first three children were born and was therefore, entitled to the benefit for the fourth child since she was seeking maternity leave for the first time.
The State opposed the plea, relying on the provisions of the Financial Handbook.
It submitted that she was not entitled to maternity leave for her fourth child.
