Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.M.VENKAT RAM REDDY Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR GENERAL ADMINISTRATION The Court made the following : THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY Writ Petition No. 16247 of 1999 Order: In this writ petition, the petitioner is questioning the orders dated 15th March, 1999, passed by the 1st respondent- Government, rejecting her claim for providing employment by extending the beneﬁts notiﬁed by the Government in G.O. Ms. No. 469, dated 08th November, 1996. The husband of the petitioner is the victim of extremist violence that occurred on 31.01.1996. The Government has issued orders in G.O. Ms. No. 469, dated 08th November, 1996, providing employment to the son, daughter or spouse of the persons killed in extremist violence. As much as the husband of the petitioner was killed by the extremists much before the issuance of the aforesaid G.O., and as there is no indication of giving any retrospective eﬀect to it, the petitioner is not entitled for any relief. However, when the matter is taken up for hearing, it is fairly submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner is not qualiﬁed to hold any post as she is uneducated. As much as there is no clause even in G.O. Ms. No. 469, for exempting the qualifications, I do not ﬁnd any ground to grant any relief as sought for by the petitioner in this writ petition. The writ petition is devoid of merit, and the same is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. _____________________ R. SUBHASH REDDY, J. Date: 22.08.2008 Nsr .....
