HC Orders Admission for Student Denied Entry Due to Menstrual Health

A woman wanted to study nursing, but the army said she wasn't healthy enough because of low iron in her blood caused by heavy periods.

The court said that shouldn't stop her.

The court believed that because of her temporary condition it was unfair to deny her the chance to study.

The court ordered the army to let her in.

This ruling is an important step towards treating health issues, especially those related to women's health, fairly in education.

She had cleared earlier tests, but medical boards found her unfit.

She was later deemed fit in October 2024.

There was a vacant seat.

The army mentioned that other candidates were also rejected.
