CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE JASBIR SINGH HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE JASWANT SINGH Present:- Sh.NS Shekhawat, Advocate for the petitioner. Sh.Harish Rathee, Sr.D.A.G.Haryana for the respondents. ***** JASBIR SINGH, J.(ORAL) Petitioner's father died in harness on 25.4.1989. He was serving as a S.S.Master with the respondents. It is an admitted fact that petitioner was minor at that time. Her mother moved an application to the department that one post be kept reserved and be offered to her daughter when she attains the requisite age. After becoming major in the year 2003 petitioner applied to get appointment on compassionate grounds, which was rejected vide order Annexure P-11 by stating that she has applied to get the benefit after a period of 14 years. We are satisfied that the order passed is perfectly justified as compassionate appointment /ex-gratia financial assistance is given with a view to give immediate relief to the dependents of the deceased, which seems to be over with the passage of time. No case is made out to interfere. Dismissed. (Jasbir Singh) Judge 31.1.2008 (Jaswant Singh) joshi Judge
