India: Sexual dysfunction: Denied job, woman moves Delhi HC

New Delhi, October 8: A woman who aspires to join Sashastra Seema
Suraksha Bal (SSSB) but suffers from congenital anomaly, has
approached the Delhi High Court alleging that she was denied
employment on the basis of sexual dysfunction.

Admitting the plea of Noorie (name changed) recently, a Division Bench
of Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul and Justice Mool Chand Garg observed
'one cannot be refused opportunity of employment on the basis of
sexual dysfunction unless a reasonable nexus is proven between the
requirement of the job and the inability of the candidate due to the
sexual disability'.
