                                 2




                           JUDGMENT

This is a case where the petitioner seeks compassionate

appointment, consequent to the death of her mother in the

year 2010, asserting that she is fully dependent upon her.

2. However, it is conceded by Smt.Thulasi Raj - learned

counsel for the petitioner, without any reservation, that the

petitioner was married much prior to the death of her mother

and that her husband was also gainfully employed.

3. Going by the judgment of the Honourable Supreme

Court in Fertilizers and Chemicals Travancore Ltd. v.

Anusree K.B. [AIR 2022 SC 4766] the sine qua non for a

claim for compassionate appointment to be favourably

considered is the immediate financial requirement of the

claimant.

4. Pertinently, this matter has been pending before

this Court for the last twelve years without any orders and

there is no explanation, through further pleadings, as to the

present fiscal scenario with respect to the petitioner. This is

relevant more so because, as I have already said above, she

is married and living with her husband. WP(C) NO. 8265 OF 2012

In the afore circumstances, I am afraid that this Court cannot

come to the aid of the petitioner, This Writ Petition is, therefore,

closed .
