D.B.Civil Special Appeal (Writ) No.698/2008 Veni Ram V/s State of Rajasthan & ors. 21.8.2008 Hon'ble the Chief Justice Mr.Narayan Roy Hon'ble Mr.Justice Sangeet Lodha Dr.Sachin Acharya for the appellant. Heard. This appeal is directed against order dated 11th April 2008 passed by the learned Single Judge of this Court in its writ jurisdiction whereby and whereunder the prayer of the writ petitioner-appellant for appointment on compassionate ground was rejected. In course of argument, learned counsel for the appellant submitted that after death of the father of this appellant, his mother was given appointment on compassionate ground as at that time he was minor, but posting was not given to her and this court over-looked this fact even though such statement was brought on record. Be that as it may, the prayer of this appellant was considered on merit and since his application was found to be hopelessly barred under the rules framed by the State of Rajasthan, no relief was granted on the premise that the family had survived for about ten years after death of the deceased employee. Besides all these questions, if the mother of the appellant was given appointment on compassionate ground, there was no need to pursue the writ application nor this appeal and better course would have been for the appellant to withdraw the writ application. Whether posting has been given to the mother of the appellant, is not the question to be decided in this appeal as the mother is not before us. In this view of the matter, we find no merit in this appeal. It is accordingly dismissed. (Sangeet Lodha)J. (Narayan Roy)CJ Parmar
