(Oral) The father of the petitioner was serving as an Assistant Lineman in respondent No.2-Corporation when he unfortunately died in harness on 16.7.2001. The petitioner was at that time a minor as he was born on 1.8.1988. The petitioner passed his matriculation examination in March, 2009. His grievance is that despite repeated representations, his claim for appointment on compassionate ground has not been considered by the respondents so far. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and considering the nature of relief sought in this writ petition and also keeping in view the above-mentioned facts, it appears imperative upon respondent Nos.2 & 3 to consider the claim of the petitioner for C.W.P.No .6353 of 2011 2 appointment on compassionate ground in accordance with the Government Policy as applicable in the respondent-Corporation. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly with a direction to respondent Nos.2 & 3 to consider the afore-mentioned claim of the petitioner within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order.
