IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.6313 of 2004 Amrit Kumar, son of Shri Mahendra Prasad Sahni, resident of Village Garhpura, P.S. Grapura, District Begusarai. ------- Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar. 2. The District Magistrate-cum-Chairman, District Compassionate Appointment Committee, Begusarai. 3. The District Superintendent of Education, Begusarai. 4. The Regional Educational Officer, Cheria Bariarpur, District Begusarai. 5. The Deputy Collector, District Establishment Committee, Begusarai. -------- Respondents ----------- 3 15.11.2010 Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State as also taking into account that the rejection of the claim of the petitioner for appointment on compassionate ground can have no exception in law, inasmuch as, a maternal grand-son under the relevant Government policy is not entitled for being considered for appointment on compassionate ground, this Court would not find the petitioner to be entitled for appointment on compassionate ground. Additionally, this Court would also find that the petitioner was a minor, aged about 12 years and, therefore, even otherwise ineligible for appointment in government service even on compassionate ground. The decision, therefore, taken by the District 2 Compassionate Appointment Committee for rejecting the claim of the petitioner for his appointment does not suffer from any error either on fact or in law. That being so, this application is wholly misconceived and is, accordingly, dismissed. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
