The Petitioner seeks appointment on compassionate ground. So also seeks release of the proceeds of gratuity, provident fund and other service benefits. The mother in law is not a party to this Petition. As such as far as prayer clause (b) is concerned, the same cannot be adjudicated.

compassionate ground at this age. The written objection is raised by the mother in law. The Respondent authority may consider the objection and take a decision with regard to the appointment to be made. The Respondents can employ one member of the family only. Apart from the Petitioner, her minor son and mother in law, no other claimant appears to be there.

¶19

In view of that, it will not be an impediment for the Respondents to take a decision with regard to the appointment of the Petitioner on compassionate ground upon considering the objection of the mother in law.

¶20

With these observations, Writ Petition is disposed of.
