Detailed headnote1 paragraphs

Allahabad High Court (Manju Rani Chauhan, J.) disposed of a writ petition by Murari Yadav seeking consideration for compassionate appointment to a teaching post under government orders dated 04.09.2000 and 15.02.2013, after he had already been granted and joined a Class-IV post on compassionate grounds following his father's death in harness on 01.09.2025. Without expressing any opinion on the merits, the Court directed respondent no. 4, the Basic Shiksha Adhikari, Ghazipur, to pass an appropriate order on the claim in accordance with law, preferably within three months of production of a certified copy of the order. Counsel relied on Special Appeal No. 1189 of 2025 (Radha Rani vs. State of U.P.), in which the Division Bench had, by order dated 03.04.2026, directed reconsideration of a similar claim.
