Jain For Union of India : Mr. Gopal Kumar, C.G.C. 4 07.10.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the respondents. Petitioner’s father died in harness on 12th March, 2003. His application for compassionate appointment has been rejected by a reasoned order dated 20th October, 2003, contained in Annexure-9, and thereafter petitioner lost before the Central Administrative Tribunal, whose order 2 dated 11th February, 2009, contained in Annexure-10, is under challenge. After some argument learned counsel for the petitioner prays to withdraw this writ petition so that he may pursue his claim before the Departmental Authorities, particularly respondent no.2, Chief Post Master General, Bihar Circle. It goes without saying that if the petitioner approaches the concerned authorities, he shall consider the claim of the petitioner on its own merit as we have not expressed our view on merits. Writ petition is dismissed as withdrawn with the liberty as aforesaid. (Shiva Kirti Singh, ACJ.) (Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.) AAhmad
