3. Upon a perusal of the record, it is noted that the death
of the family member, against whom compassionate appointment
is sought, occurred on 26.05.2011. Thereafter, the instant petition
was filed seeking compassionate appointment in the Year 2015.
The petition has come up on board for hearing for the first time
today i.e. in the Year 2025. Ever since the filing of the instant
petition, no active steps were taken by the petitioner for the early
listing of the matter.
4. As on date, over 9 years have lapsed since the demise
of the earning family member, against whom compassionate
employment is sought. If compassionate appointment is made
now, the same shall be against the object and purpose for which
the appointment on compassionate grounds is provided. The
whole object of granting compassionate employment is to enable
the family to tide over the sudden crisis caused by the instant
death of the earning family member. The object is not to give such
family a post, much less a post held by the deceased family
member. In this regard, reliance can be placed upon the dictum of
the Hon’ble Apex Court as enunciated in Fertilizers and
Chemicals Travancore Ltd. and Ors. vs. Anusree K.B.
reported in AIR 2022 SC 4766.
5. As a result, in light of the foregoing observations, the
instant petition is dismissed. Pending applications, if any, stand
disposed of.
