UNIVERSITY,BIHAR,PUTA, SAMASTIPUR,-------------------------RESPONDENTS ----------- 2 25.4.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the University. Petitioner’s husband who died in harness was an employee under the respondent university. After death, the son of the deceased employee was appointed in compassionate category. The present writ application has been filed by the widow of deceased employee seeking a direction that now since her son has become an employee under the university she may be permitted to continue in the quarter which was initially allotted to her husband, as he is entitled to the same kind of accommodation. So far her claim is concerned it is also urged that the university authority has accommodated others and adopted a discriminatory attitude against the petitioner. This Court has certain reservation in giving any direction for allotment of quarter in question in favour of the petitioner/son merely because her son has been appointed for compassionate reason as every kind of compassion cannot be - 2 - given to such an employee. It is evident from the pleadings that the son of the petitioner has been recently appointed and obviously he cannot claim allotment of a quarter as a matter of right because claim of others who are already in queue for such allotment cannot be given a go bye merely because compassion cannot be extended with regard to every aspect of the claim made by the present petitioner or the legal heirs of the deceased employee. Let the petitioner make a regular application before the Estate Officer, Rajendra Agricultural University who will consider the case of the petitioner sympathetically provided it does not affect the claim of other employees who may be otherwise senior for claiming an official accommodation. By giving any direction or allowing the petitioner or her son to continue in the quarter would be violative of the claim of other employees who are not before the Court. The respondents would however consider the request of the son of the petitioner sympathetically. This writ application is dismissed with the above liberty. RPS (Ajay Kumar Tripathi,J.)
