Vishali O.S v. The Commissioner Cum Joint Director (Employee Group)

ORDER Heard the learned counsel on either side.

¶2The petitioner's father / Saravanan passed away in the year 2004. He was working as Junior Assistant. An application for appointment on compassionate ground is said to have been submitted within three years by the petitioner's mother. The petitioner's mother does not appear to have proceeded in the matter. The petitioner, instead, wants to be provided with appointment on compassionate ground. The petitioner is aged about 22 years. When the petitioner's father passed away, she was hardly four years.

¶3In these circumstances, it is only the petitioner's mother who may probably have a case to pursue. The petitioner was a minor during the relevant time. Having attained majority only four years ago, she cannot have any claim. The order impugned in this writ petition does not warrant interference.

¶4This writ petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs.
