[CW-8221/2026]

the Petitioner under RGHS and may further be directed to release to the Petitioner a sum of Rs.9,10,101/- as reimbursement for the medical expenses already incurred by him along with interest.

¶23

B. Cost of the writ petition may kindly be awarded in favour of the Petitioner.

¶24

C. Any other order, which this Hon'ble Court deems just and proper may kindly be passed in favor of the Petitioner."

¶25

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that on account of having severe neurological problems, petitioner was hospitalized in Eternal Hospital, Jaipur on account of emergent circumstances on 27.10.2022, where he was discharged on 05.11.2022. Learned counsel submits that as per Rules, petitioner submitted bills for reimbursement of medical expenses; however, same has not been encashed to this date. The respondents have raised hyper-technical issues by wrongly treating the continuous admission in the hospital as two separate events only on account of the fact that at the first instance, petitioner was admitted to the ICU, whereas after improvement in his health, he was later shifted to general ward. Learned counsel submits that all the relevant documents have been placed by the petitioner before the respondents, yet no detailed order for assigning reasons of refusing reimbursement of the medical bills have been issued by the respondents till this date and simply on official portal, a short message has been given for rejecting the case of the petitioner due to 'multiple discharge summaries'.

¶26

Learned counsel submits that approach of the respondents in raising hyper-technical issues so as to deprive the

[2026:RJ-JP:19738]

[CW-8221/2026]

petitioner of his legitimate right to get reimbursement of medical bills is quite arbitrary.

¶31

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the record.

¶32

During the course of arguments, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner would be satisfied, in case, liberty is granted to the petitioner to submit a representation along with all the documents before the Competent Authority, who may decide the representation by speaking order.

¶33

In view of limited grievance and prayer of the petitioner, this Court deems it just and proper to dispose of this writ petition at this stage with liberty to the petitioner to submit a representation before the Competent Authority along with all necessary documents, who shall consider and decide the representation by a reasoned and speaking order within a period of 30 days from the date of receipt of representation along with certified copy of this order.

It is made clear that this Court has not expressed any opinion on merits of the case.
