...Respondent(s)

CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE G.S.SANDHAWALIA

Present:

Mr. S.L. Chander Shekhar, Advocate, for the petitioner.

G.S.SANDHAWALIA, J. (Oral) The petitioner seeks the consideration for appointment on compassionate grounds on account of the death of father Sh. Sat Parkash Sharma, who died on 06.11.2010 while in service as Junior Assistant. It is the case of the petitioner, who is the daughter, that the mother had died earlier. There were three children who were the legal heirs and the son, Sourav Sharma had died on 18.08.2012. No objection had been taken from the sister Shivani Sharma. The petitioner was entitled for employment as now she was no longer married and had taken divorce from husband Sachin Puri on 02.12.2013. It is the case of the petitioner that her application has been sent to respondent no. 2 on 10.06.2014 (Annexure P11) for appropriate orders but no action has been taken on the same in spite of the fact that a period of more than 1-1/2 years has expired. Counsel further submits that he would be satisfied if the said respondent takes a decision on the said proposal received by respondent no. 2 within a time bound frame.

CWP No. 4238 of 2016 Notice of motion.

Mr. R.S. Sidhu, AAG, Punjab accepts notice on behalf of the respondents. Copy of the writ petition has been supplied to him in Court. Keeping in view the limited relief sought, this Court is of the opinion that there is no need for the respondents to file reply. Accordingly, without commenting on the merits of the case and the entitlement as claimed, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to respondent no. 2 to take a decision on the said communication dated 10.06.2014 (Annexure P-11) within a period of 2 months from the date of receipt of certified copy of the order. Needless to say if the relief is to be denied, a reasoned order be passed and conveyed to the petitioner. 18.03.2016 (G.S.
