The petitioner’s father died on 12.12.2000 against which he made an application for grant of compassionate appointment on 13.07.2010, which could not be decided and leading to ANKIT KUMAR SINGH Digitally signed by ANKIT KUMAR SINGH 2 WPS No. 8556 of 2019 filing of WPS No.6613 of 2018, in which, this Court had directed respondent No.2 & 3 therein on 29.11.2018 to decide petitioner’s application within a period of 90, thereafter, petitioner’s application for compassionate appointment was rejected (Annexure P/1) against which the present writ petition has been filed. 2.

Admittedly, petitioner’s father died on 12.12.2000 and now, more than 25 years have been passed from the date of death of the petitioner’s father, therefore, at this stage, it would be completely against the object of compassionate appointment 1 Writ Appeal No. 537 of 2015; decided on 10.09.2018 3 WPS No. 8556 of 2019 and to direct the respondents to grant the compassionate appointment to the petitioner. As such, I do not find any merit in the instant writ petition, accordingly, the same is dismissed. No cost(s). Sd/- (Sanjay K. Agrawal) Judge Ankit
