JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR TRIPATHI and HONOURABLE JUSTICE SMT. NILU AGRAWAL ORAL JUDGMENT (Per: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR TRIPATHI) Date: 06-04-2017 The order dated 24.11.2016, passed by the Central Administrative Tribunal, Patna Bench, Patna in OA 810/2016 is being challenged.
The facts speak for itself. The present petitioner is the grandson, who is claiming compassionate appointment under his grandmother who was Railway employee and died on 09.12.1995. Since the father was held to be medically unfit, the present petitioner waited to become adult and a major before asserting right for
Patna High Court CWJC No.2186 of 2017 dt.06-04-2017 2/2 compassionate appointment.
The Tribunal has dismissed the OA rightly so in the opinion of this Court because compassionate appointment is not to provide employment to family members at the asking, but the object is to provide immediate succor to the family on the death happening of the bread earner.
The facts being what they are, no interference is warranted with the order of the Tribunal, which does not suffer from any infirmity. Writ is dismissed.
