D.B. CIVIL SPECIAL APPEAL (WRIT) NO.1345/2007 State of Rajasthan & Ors.Vs.Smt. Asha Devi Gupta & Anr. Date of Order :: February 29, 2008. HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR.NARAYAN ROY HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MOHAMMAD RAFIQ Mr. H.V. Nandwana, Govt. Counsel for the appellants. *** Heard learned Government Counsel for the State. The delay in filing this appeal is condoned. By the order impugned, the learned Single Judge of this Court has directed the State authorities to give appointment to the writ petitioner no.2 on compassionate ground. It appears that the husband of writ petitioner no.1 died in harness. On account of his death, her elder son was given appointment on compassionate ground. He also died within six months of the appointment. Consequent thereupon, another application was filed on behalf of the writ petitioner no.2 for appointment on compassionate ground. The State Government, however, declined the prayer of the writ petitioner no.2. The learned Single Judge of this Court having considered the facts and circumstances of the case and also the fact that the elder son who was given appointment on compassionate ground, died within six months, the another son was entitled to be appointed on compassionate ground as the financial crisis of the family remained as it is. -2- At this stage, now we are informed that pursuant to filing of the contempt application, the State authorities have already given appointment to the writ petitioner no.2 on compassionate ground. The findings recorded by the learned Single Judge of this Court, in our view, is well sustainable inasmuch as when the financial crisis of the family remained as it is and there was need to consider the case of writ petitioner no.2 for appointment on compassionate ground. Regard being had to the facts and circumstances of the case, especially in view of the fact that the appointment has already been given to the writ petitioner no.2, in our considered view, no interference is required. This appeal is accordingly dismissed. (MOHAMMAD RAFIQ),J. (NARAYAN ROY),CJ. Skant/-
