IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.5763 of 2009 ASHA DEVI Versus THE UNION OF INDIA & ORS ----------- 2. 11.05.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for Union of India. It is the case of the petitioner that her husband died in harness on 25.4.2008 in a road accident. She has filed a representation on 17.3.2009 to be considered for compassionate appointment. Appointment on compassionate ground is not a matter of right, but is regulated by the modalities that may be prescribed for the same by a particular employer. Learned counsel for the petitioner is unable to satisfy the Court and for which there are no materials on record also that the petitioner has applied in prescribed manner with supporting documents. Learned counsel for the Union of India fairly submits that if the petitioner applies in prescribed manner with supporting documents, her application shall be considered in accordance with law. The application stands disposed. AKS/ (Navin Sinha, J.)
