This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner seeking a mandamus, directing the respondents herein to appoint him on compassionate grounds as Junior Assistant. 2.Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned Additional Government Pleader for the respondents. 3.The grievance of the petitioner is that he has not been given appointment on compassionate ground, on the demise of his father G.Mani who died on 31.07.2005. In regard to the same, he made an application dated 29.12.2005 to the third respondent and his mother made a representation to the Chief Minister (Special Cell) dated 20.02.2012. Since no action is https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

forthcoming, he has come forward with the present writ petition.

4.The learned Additional Government Pleader submitted that letter has been sent to the petitioner by the third respondent stating that petitioner's name has been included in the list of compassionate appointment and whenever, he attains seniority in the compassionate ground list, he would be given appointment.

The letter of the third respondent dated 24.07.2015 is recorded.

7.With the above observation and direction, this Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs.
