Upon her own showing, petitioner is the second wife of the deceased employee. She has made an attempt for her appointment on compassionate ground. However, from the counter affidavit it appears that respondents have considered the case of first wife and elder son born from the first wife for compassionate appointment. Second wife has no legal status in the lifetime of first wife to claim any rightful benefits on account of death of her husband in harness. From the counter affidavit it appears that the case of maintenance of minor sons of the petitioner has been considered by the respondents. However, since no one appears for the petitioner, the application is dismissed as not pressed. B.T (J. N. Singh, J.)
