The petitioners are the Union and member of the Union and allegedly the compassionate appointment is denied to the petitioner no.2 though she is widow of the deceased employee and is entitled to seek such appointment in accordance with the Government Resolution dated 30th June, 1994. The Industrial Court held that there is no employer-employee relationship between the parties and that jurisdiction was unavailable to consider and grant request for compassionate appointment of the 2 petitioner no.2. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioners seek to rely on unreported judgment delivered in Writ Petition No.938 of 2008, wherein the Hon'ble Single Bench of this Court held that complaint application could be entertained when the complainant is seeking relief in respect of employment under the award reached between the employer and the union of the employees. 4. In the present case, the petitioner no.2 did not seek any benefit under the settlement or award. The entire edifice of the claim of the petitioners is on the Government Resolution, which reflects policy determined for compassionate appointment amongst the various Government Organization. Under these circumstances, the Industrial Court rightly held that it had no jurisdiction. No substance. Petition is dismissed. (V.R.KINGAONKAR) JUDGE gas/wp1652.10(1)
