I am employed in state govt office and there are 3 similar cases in my office,wherein the first son/heir of the deceased govt employee has applied for compassionate appointment and later died when it is in process and then the second son applies for compassionate appointment.
In one case of the 3 cases, the deceased employee's wife has changed her application after applying for her first son,requesting job for her second son since her first son is ill. In the other 2 cases, the first heir died when proposals were in process
Though logically the second heir can be considered for appointment,as per rules in force, the govt instruction is not to consider applications of alternative legal heir after someone from the family has applied. There are no updated rules with respect to the above circumstance.
So please enlighten me if the there are judgements or rules that you are aware of related to the above case
