IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.2006 of 2011 Raj Kumari Vs. The State of Haryana & others Present: Mr.S.S.Hira, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** RANJIT SINGH, J. When the attention of the counsel is drawn to the fact that as per the rules, the compassionate appointment would not be allowed if an employee dies after completing 55 years of age, counsel contends that the Chief Minister has the power to relax the condition in cases of extra-ordinary hardship to the family. Let the petitioner first approach the Chief Minister giving out her hardship for relaxation in her case before this part of the plea is considered by the court. With the above observations, the writ petition is disposed of to enable the petitioner to file a representation before the Chief Minister. February 03, 2011 ( RANJIT SINGH ) ramesh JUDGE
