WP(C) 2091/2010 BEFORE THE HON BLE MR. JUSTICE HRISHIKESH ROY Heard Mr. B Islam, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Mr. MK Mishr a, learned standing counsel for the Education Department. The petitioner applied for compassionate appointment following the death of his father on 16.6.2002, while he served as the Hindi Teacher of the Dekachang High School of Kamrup District. In an earlier round i.e. in WP(C) No.504/03, this Cou rt on 24.1.2003 disposed of the said writ petition with a direction to examine t he petitioner’s claim, in accordance with the norms in force along with other si milar applicants. It appears from the order passed on 1.4.2009 in Cont. Case (C) No.385/08 (Annexu re-8) that the petitioner’s claim for compassionate appointment was placed befor e the District Level Committee (DLC) on 20.8.2002 and on 2.6.2007 and upon due c onsideration along with similar category applicants, the DLC found him unfit to be recommended for consideration of the State Level Committee. In above circumstances, it is clear that the petitioner’s claim for compassionat e appointment received due consideration from the competent Committee, by follow ing the judgment of this Court in Achyut Ranjan Das vs. State of Assam reported in 2006 (4) GLT 216. That having regard to the fact that the death of the bread earner had occurred nearly 8 years back, the petitioner can’t be considered to b e in a state of penury, I see no justification to issue any further direction in his favor. Accordingly this case is ordered to be closed.
