Quick Summary

A PSPCL employee's father, a JE, passed away in June 2018. The employee, holding an MTech degree, received a job as an LDC on compassionate grounds. They are inquiring if they can challenge the post offered, given their higher qualifications. The response clarifies that compassionate appointments are typically for C & D category posts and are based on surviving family needs and available vacancies. While one can request the government, it's unlikely to result in a different post based on higher qualifications. The advice is to keep competing for suitable appointments, as even graduates are seen in lower-level roles.

No. Compassionate appointment will be given to surviving the family of the deceased employees and according to the vacancies also. If you have not satisfied you have to request the Government concerned. But I opine your request may not be considered.

You have no claim for any other post based o higher qualification. You can keep competing for proper appointment.

By the way in the present senerio even PG boys are joining as MTS (earlier called peon) after duly competing in the exam. Some Btech boys can be seen working as LDC.
