Shri Vikram Jatav, learned counsel for the applicant.

With consent heard finally.
The present petition under Article 226 of the Constitution
of India seeking following relief:-
";kfpdkdrkZ izkFkZuk djrk gS fd ;kfpdkdrkZ }kjk izLrqr fjV ;kfpdk Lohdkj dh tkdj izfr;kfpdkdrkZ dks funsZf'kr fd;k tkos fd og ;kfpdkdrkZ dks mldh ;ksX;rk ds vuqlkj vuqdEik fu;qfDr iznku djsaA vU; U;k;kfpr lgk;rk tks ekuuh; U;k;ky; mfpr le>s ;kfpdkdrkZ dks fnykbZ tkosA"
2. It is the submission of learned counsel for the petitioner
that after death of brother of petitioner in year 2002, his newly
wedded wife namely Shashi Mahore (Respondent No.4 herein)
took the advantage of the situation and got compassionate
appointment. In such appointment process, she gave an affidavit
stating that she would take care of her mother-in-law and other
family members, but she did not take care, therefore, on
complaint and thereafter inquiry, deceased' wife Shashi Mahore
was removed from the service.
3. It is submitted that immediately after marriage of brother of
petitioner, he disappeared in clandestine manner and his body
never traced out by police and therefore, brother of deceased has
an apprehension that something bad has been done either by his
wife or somebody else. Now, in place of his brother, petitioner
may be given compassionate appointment.
4. Learned Panel Lawyer for the respondents/State opposed
the prayer and submitted that after inordinate delay, petitioner
cannot be considered for compassionate appointment.
5. Considering the submissions and the judgments of Hon'ble
Apex Court as well as the order passed by the Division Bench at
Indore in the case of Managing Director, Madhya Pradesh
Paschim Kshetra Vidyut Vitran Company and others Vs.
Ashiq Shah and another vide order dated 07.06.2021 in Writ
Appeal No.10/2020, petitioner at such belated stage is not entitled
for any relief. So far as relief sought by the petitioner by way of
interim relief that mother of petitioner is entitled for all retiral
dues and other benefits are concerned, that cannot be adjudicated
by this court without proper pleadings. Therefore, petitioner is
relegated back to the legal remedies so far as retiral dues and
respective entitlement is concerned to pursue other remedies in
accordance with law including submission of representation
before competent authority or to pursue any other remedy as
available to him. However, relief of compassionate appointment
cannot be given to the petitioner at this belated stage.
6. Petition stands disposed of in above terms.
7. This court has not expressed any opinion on the merits of
the case regarding entitlement of pensionary benefits/retiral dues
of mother of petitioner which shall be taken care by the
competent authority/judicial forum as per law.
