IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.7058 of 2008 Indu Devi, Wife of Sagar Kumar Singh and Daughter of late Ashok Kumar Singh, Resident of Village Sondiha, P.O. Sondiha, P.S. Pasraha (Gogri), District Khagaria. -------- Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar. 2. The Collector, Bhagalpur. 3. The Sub Divisional Officer, Naugachiya, Bhagalpur. 4. The Block Development Officer, Jagdishpur, Naugachiya, Bhagalpur. 5. The Circle Inspector, Jagdishpur, Naugachiya, Bhagalpur. --------- Respondents ----------- 2 25.4.2011 No one appears on behalf of the petitioner. Counsel for the State is present and would point out that as a matter of fact, the petitioner being a married daughter, was ineligible for appointment on compassionate ground and, in any event, the son of the deceased employee being an applicant and having a preferential claim over the daughter in the Government policy, has already been appointed on 3.10.2008. In that view of the matter, this application is wholly misconceived and is accordingly dismissed. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
