1 S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.2145/2010 Amit Kumar. vs. Union of India & Ors. Date : 5.3.2010 HON'BLE MR. PRAKASH TATIA, J. Mr.Sanjeet Purohit, for the petitioner. - - - - - Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. The employee died in the year 2000 and the employee's wife sought appointment on compassionate ground in the year 2001. She was duly permitted to face the selections but she voluntarily did not face the selection till 2004. In the year 2007, another application was submitted for getting appointment of the son of employee (present petitioner) and that was rejected by order dated 28.5.2009. The petitioner then on 25.2.2010 has approached this Court by filing this writ petition for getting the compassionate appointment. The facts referred above are sufficient for the dismissal of the writ petition as compassionate appointment is not given to the person who can wait for such a long period and in this case, once the wife of the deceased employee (petitioner's mother) applied for the post and had opportunity to get appointment, did not chose to 2 join the service on the pretext that she was not qualified, then the matter would have come to an end in the year 2004. The entertainment of the application of the employee's son after almost more than 7 years itself was wrong and, therefore, I do not find any merit in this writ petition. Consequently, this writ petition is hereby dismissed. (PRAKASH TATIA), J. S.Phophaliya
