05. 01. 2024 BP Sl . 206 Court No. 17 WPA 19230 of 2023 Souvik Biswas Vs.

The State of West Bengal & Ors.

Mr. Himangshu Ghosh Ms. Dipanwita Ganguly ..for the petitioner Mr. Arindam Chattopadhyay ..for DPSC, Nadia Mr. Biswabrata Basu Mallick Mr. Sanjib Das ..for the State The petitioner has challenged the office memorandum dated 21.06.2023 at page 49 of the writ application whereunder the claim for compassionate appointment has been refused by the Chairman, Nadia District Primary School Council on the ground that family income of the petitioner exceeds the initial gross salary of a Group-D staff of the Council at the material point of time. In the touchstone of this principle where the family income of a person who is claiming the compassionate appointment for him and for his family exceeds the initial gross salary of a Group-D staff, compassionate appointment cannot be given.

Therefore, I do not find any infirmity in the office memorandum of the Chairman, Nadia District Primary

School Council wherefrom it appears that the family income of the petitioner was more than 72,000/- at the material point of time. I do not find any merit in this writ application and the same is dismissed.

No costs.
