      For the Petitioner        : Mr. Sanjay Prasad, Advocate
      For the Respondents       : Mr. Ananda Sen, Advocate

Certain dispute is there with regard to the claim and

counter claim for compassionate appointment.

Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner (second

wife of the deceased employee) contends that she got married after

the death of the first wife. However, it is an admitted fact that the

elder son of the petitioner, namely, Rajesh Kumar, had applied for

compassionate appointment but, thereafter, he withdrew the said

application for his compassionate appointment and submitted ‘no

objection’ in favour of his younger brother, namely, Shailesh

Kumar, to be appointed on compassionate ground.

In the facts and circumstances of the case, the

petitioner, if so advised may raise a fresh claim in favour of a

common person, as agreed upon by all the legal heirs of the

deceased employee, annexing therewith “No Objection” from all the

legal heirs, for compassionate appointment, as per Clause 9.4.3. of

the N.C.W.A.

The respondents are, therefore, directed to consider the

same, in accordance with law.

This writ petition is dismissed with the aforesaid liberty.
