Nobody is appearing on behalf of the petitioner. Learned Counsel appearing for the respondents submit that since the dues which were payable to the deceased have already been paid to the petitioner and the respondent being unaided college had no scheme for making appointment on compassionate ground, still, the application of the petitioner was considered sympathetically and as there was no scheme for employment on compassionate ground the same was declined. 2. It is apparent from the bare reading that the husband of the petitioner had died in the year 1999 and request was made on 16th January, 2001. Thereafter the petitioner did not pursue any of the matter. It is settled principle of law that appointment on compassionate ground is primarily intended to breach the crisis in the family. It appears that nobody is interested in claiming the relief now after the lapse of 7 years. There are no merits in ‘ the petition. Petition is dismissed.
