For the Petitioner/s : Dr. Om Prakash Om, Advocate For the Respondent/s : Mr. N.Dixit, Advocate ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT GUPTA and HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE AHSANUDDIN AMANULLAH ORAL ORDER (Per: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT GUPTA) 06-05-2016 The order dated 03.12.2014 passed by the Central Administrative Tribunal, Patna Bench, Patna in O.A. No. 050/00850/2014 is the subject matter of challenge in the present writ petition. The claim of the petitioner for appointment on compassionate ground has not been entertained having been raised after more than a decade.
The father of the petitioner died in the year 2003. The petitioner approached the Tribunal by way of the present Original Application. The application is grossly delayed and has been rightly dismissed. Appointment on compassionate ground is to
Patna High Court CWJC No.5728 of 2015 (2) dt.06-05-2016 2/2 meet the financial distress and is not a source of regular appointment. If the petitioner has not made any grievance for more than a decade, he cannot be permitted to raise his claim after such a long lapse of time. The learned Tribunal has rightly dismissed the application.
We do not find any error in the order of the learned Tribunal which may warrant interference by this Court in writ jurisdiction.
The writ petition is dismissed.
