THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU Thursday, the 21st day of June,2007 W.P.No.19773 of 1998 Between:- B. Anand … Petitioner and A.P. State Road Transport Corporation, rep. by its Managing Director, Mushirabad, Hyderabad-20 & another … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU W.P.No.19773 of 1998 ORAL ORDER: Heard both sides. It appears, father of the petitioner died in harness while serving the respondent-Corporation on 5-11-1992. Therefore, petitioner claimed employment on compassionate grounds. It is seen that the case of the petitioner was rejected on the ground that his mother as well as his brother were already working as Sweeper and Cleaner respectively, in the respondent-Corporation, even prior to death of father of petitioner and petitioner was living with his mother as well as brother, together. This fact is not disputed by the petitioner. Once the mother and brother of the petitioner are employed in the Corporation, it cannot be said that there was necessity of appointing the petitioner on compassionate ground to take care of the family to meet the immediate contingency, if any. I am of the opinion that the respondents have not committed any illegality in rejecting the case of the petitioner. The Writ Petition is devoid of any merit and is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. 21-6-2007 prk
