JUSTICE SUDESH BANSAL Order 01/05/2025 1. Instant writ petition was filed by petitioner way back on 05.02.2015, however, till date neither service of respondents has been effected nor the petitioner has filed the PF and notices despite giving opportunity, hence in such circumstances, the writ petition has been heard on merits at this stage itself. 2. It appears that petitioner was denied compassionate appointment vide order dated 10.04.2010 (Annx.4) on the ground that at that point of time in the State Bank of India, the scheme of employment on compassionate basis was not applicable. [2025:RJ-JP:18425] (2 of 2) [CW-1942/2015] 3. Petitioner has impugned the order of denial to grant compassionate appointment vide order dated 10.04.2010, placing reliance on the scheme of compassionate appointment made applicable in the Public Sector Banks w.e.f. 05.08.2014. A perusal of scheme clearly shows that the scheme has been made effective by the Ministry of Finance w.e.f. 05.08.2014 and such scheme cannot be held applicable retrospectively, hence, petitioner cannot be granted benefit of such scheme, to impugn the order dated 10.04.2010. 4. There being no force in the writ petition, same is hereby dismissed accordingly. 5. All pending application(s), if any, stand(s) disposed of. (SUDESH BANSAL),J RONAK JAIMAN/32
