I am a 23 year old student. Recantly undergone a kidney transplant surgery. I was preparing for UPSC civil services. But according to there gazzette of India.Extraordinary Civil Services. I am declared unfit. Organ transplant candidates are considered unfit. Though my reports are normal. Can I move to court regarding this issue. (1) As I am not considered disabled but unfit both at same time. Acc to medical fitness report by my doctor - I am able to discharge my duties. (2) I am not asking for reservation , asking for opportunity (Right to equal opportunity ) (3) In that gazzette at one place , it is mentioned that if disease is curable by surgical means, they will be considered fit.( but they dont specify kidney disease in that list) (4) In a landmark judgement , Bombay high court said - "if ailment is curable, you cant be denied job". and luckily this was a case of kidney transplant patient. (5) Its a non technical service, if it applies to all other services then I am eligible for nothing. It is against social justice and my right to live with dignity. please help thanks all
