BEFORE
HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ACHINTYA MALLA BUJOR BARUA
ORDER
Date : 05/01/2022
The claim of the petitioner for compassionate appointment was
rejected on the ground that the deceased employee had only two months 26
days of service left at the time when he died and therefore, not be entitled
for the compassionate appointment as per the Office Memorandum dated
01.06.2015.
Ms. S. Kanungo, learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the issue
had already been decided by this Court in its judgment dated 09.12.2020 in
WP(C) 3500/2020, wherein it has been held that in such cases where the death
had occurred prior to the date of the Office Memorandum, the provision thereof
would be inapplicable.

Mr. G. Pegu, learned counsel prays for some time to examine the aforesaid
aspect.
