Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioners' claim for appointment on compassionate ground was rejected relying upon the earlier scheme for compassionate appointment, wherein the married daughter was not eligible. The earlier scheme is dated 05.09.2016.
The submission of the petitioner's counsel is that in 2021, relying upon decisions rendered by various High Courts,
Patna High Court CWJC No.12491 of 2017(3) dt.26-08-2022 2/2 the Bank has come out with new provisions enabling the married daughter also to stake claim for compassionate appointment. The scheme, however, is not on record. He however submits that application has already been filed under the scheme.
Learned counsel for the Bank is not aware of the scheme but does not object to disposal of the writ petition for enabling the authorities to consider her pending application in accordance with law.
The application is accordingly disposed of.
