Patil, Advocate for the petitioner CORAM :- B.R. GAVAI & A.A. SAYED, JJ. DATE :- 29TH SEPTEMBER, 2010. 1] The petitioner seeks appointment on compassionate ground. 2] It is the contention of the petitioner that the petitioner's father was working with the Zilla Parishad and he died on 13th September, 1993 on account of an accident. It is submitted that since the petitioner and his sisters were minor, they could not make application for appointment at the relevant time. It was also advised that the petitioner should undergo some education before making an application. Accordingly, he completed his 12th standard and thereafter made application in the year 2009. The same is rejected. Hence, the present petition. 3] By now, it is a settled position of law that the purpose of making appointment on compassionate ground is to help the family in overcoming the hardship that the family may face on account of sudden death or ailment of the earning member of the family.

By no stretch of imagination it can be said that the hardship which the family of the petitioner was facing in the year 1993 still exists in 2010. In that view of the matter, no case is made out for interference. Hence the writ petition is rejected. [A.A. SAYED, J.] [B.R. GAVAI, J.] grt/-
