For the State : SC -1. ------ 02. 02.05.2011 The Court has reservation in giving any direction upon the respondents to expedite the case of the petitioner for appointment on compassionate ground in the background that the mother of the petitioner, who was stated to be a teacher, died in harness way back in the year 1987. Law on the subject is well settled that benefit of compassionate appointment is to be given to provide immediate succor to the family after the death of a bread earner. Compassionate appointment is not a methodology for 2 appointment through back door. The fact that the family has survived for more than twenty four years is good enough to reject such a claim for compassionate appointment. At least this Court is not welling to pass any direction in the stated facts. Writ is dismissed. rkp ( Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
