For the reasons stated in the affidavit accompanying the delay petition, delay is condoned. The only direction issued in the judgment is for considering the application filed by the respondent. In the impugned judgment, we refused to interfere with the order of the Central Administrative Tribunal in O.A.No.752 of 2004. We see no ground to review the judgment. Petitioner's application for compassionate appointment was rejected as there was no vacancy even though he was eligible to get compassionate appointment. The direction issued by the Tribunal was to consider the application and appoint him if there are vacancies or in the next arising vacancies in accordance with the rules. That was affirmed by this Court. We see no ground to review the judgment. A review petition cannot be equated to an appeal or a petition for re-hearing of the matter. The review petition is dismissed. J.B.Koshy Acting Chief Justice T.R. Ramachandran Nair Judge vaa
