UKHC010120492026 2026:UHC:5781 SL. No Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGES’S ORDERS UKHC010124032022 WPSS No.1805 of 2026 Gaurav Singh ………Petitioner Vs. B.S.N.L. and others ………Respondents Hon’ble Pankaj Purohit, J. Mr. Yogesh Upadhyay, learned counsel for the petitioner. 2. Ms. Anjali Bhargava, learned counsel for the respondents. 3. Learned Counsel for the respondents, at the very outset, has submitted that the present matter is cognizable by the Central Administrative Tribunal, therefore, this Court should not entertain this petition. 4. The petitioner has sought compassionate appointment in respondent-B.S.N.L. wherein father of the petitioner was employed as Telephone Technician who died on 23.02.2018 while still in service. 5. Since the B.S.N.L. is notified before the C.A.T., therefore the writ petition is not maintainable, therefore the writ petition is disposed of with liberty reserved to the petitioner to approach the Central Administrative Tribunal which is a statutory forum available to the petitioner for redressal of his grievance. 6. It is, however, clarified that this Court has not gone into the merits of claim of petitioner, as canvassed in present writ petition. (Pankaj Purohit, J.) 14.07.2026 SK
