SB Civil Writ Petition No.3789/2002 Rajendra Singh Yadav Vs State of Rajasthan & ors 7.8.2007 Hon'ble Mr Justice Ashok Parihar Mr Prakash Thakuria for Mr Dinesh Yadav – for petitioner BY THE COURT: Father of the petitioner died on 27.7.1999 while in service. Petitioner was given appointment on the post of LDC vide order dated 20.7.2000 on compassionate grounds. Petitioner has now prayed for appointment to the post of PTI Gr III on compassionate grounds in the present writ petition filed on 27.6.2002. Though, the compassionate appointment cannot be claimed as matter of right, the petitioner having already been given appointment on compassionate grounds now cannot be allowed to pray for any other post as per his qualifications, more so, in view of the judgment of the Supreme Court in the case of State of Rajasthan Vs Umrao Singh (1994[6]SCC 560). The writ petition is dismissed accordingly as having no merit. (Ashok Parihar) J. bnsharma
