Compassionate appointment

Dear Friends,

A GDS (Postal Department) employee died in harness and his widow has been given compassionate appointment . But the appointment has been made for one year only and subject to approval of CPMG. Approval has not been finalized and one year is going to expire in next week. I have filed OA before Central Adiministrative Tribunal.

I have Two rulings of Allahabad High Court published in local journals, to the efect that a compassionate appointment is always permanent . It can not be temporary or adhoc. I think there is supreme court's verdict also on the same line but, I do not recollect the citation. I will be deeply obliged if any of my friends could provide the supreme court's citation and other decisions on the above point.

Thanks in advance,

VNT

Whereas the representation/request already given by the widow of the deseased in postal dept.but the concerned authority refused the employment in harsh.I had the the guideline/notification issued by the ministry of labour to postal and some other dept.of central govt related to the compensation appointments,in which it was explainde in a tabular form and point wise allotment of the family financial/other condition,in which they must secure min.marks to qualify for the appointments.pls let me know if any cititation/s u gathered in this matter.pls send me ur contact no..
