The prayer of the petitioner for compassionate appointment has been rejected by Railways which was challenged before CAT. CAT rejected the application by upholding the view taken by the Railways. As the petitioner is found to be the second wife, the supplementary circular no. 5 to master circular no. 16 which governs the appointment on compassionate ground does not entitle the second wife to claim appointment on compassionate ground. We do not find any error or illegality in the impugned order. Therefore, the petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. (J.N. Patel, J.) (J.N. Patel, J.) (J.N. Patel, J.) 2 (Smt.
