Pleadings in the writ application shows that application of the petitioner for his compassionate appointment was earlier rejected on 25.4.1985 on the ground that his mother was in Government service. More than ten years after, petitioner has filed another application vide Annexure-1 for consideration of his case for compassionate appointment on the ground that his mother has since superannuated. The said application has also been now rejected by the respondents vide communication dated - 2 - 25.10.2006, as contained in Annexure-3. Subsequent superannuation of another spouse in Government service and death afterwards,does not make the dependent entitled to renew his application for compassionate appointment after more than ten years of rejection of the same by the authorities. The writ application is devoid of merits and the same is accordingly dismissed. Pradeep/ ( J. N. Singh, J.)
