Hon'ble Ram Surat Ram (Maurya),J.
Heard Sri Pankaj Lal for the petitioner and Sri Ajeet Kumar Singh for respondents-1 and 2.
This writ petition has been filed for mandamus directing Regional Manager (respondent-2) to decide the application of the petitioner for compassionate appointment on a suitable post in Dying in Harness Quota.
It has been stated that Smt. Meera Devi (mother of the petitioner), was Senior Clerk in U.P. State Road Transport Corporation Ltd. She died in harness on 12.12.2014. After her death, two applications, i.e. one by Smt. Meena Devi (married sister of the petitioner) and the other by the petitioner, have been filed for compassionate appointment. Application of Meena Devi was rejected by Regional Manager, by the order dated 6.8.2016, holding that she does not come within the purview of compassionate appointment. Since the application of Smt. Meena Devi has already been rejected, as such, application of the petitioner is liable to be considered, but no order has been passed in respect of the application of the petitioner.
The writ petition is disposed of directing the Regional Manager (respondent-2) to appropriate order on the application of the petitioner for compassionate appointment, within three months from the date of producing a certified copy of this order before him.
