V/S
Joint Director Of Health Services Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) The order of rejection dtd. 29/6/2018, rejecting the claim of the writ petitioner for compassionate appointment is under challenge in the present writ petition.

(2.) The learned counsel for the writ petitioner states that the mother of the writ petitioner Lt.Smt.Rajammal was employed in the respondent office and died on 23/8/2002, while she was in service.

(3.) Admittedly, the mother of the writ petitioner was an employee who died while in service on 23/8/2002. The first application submitted by the father of the writ petitioner was not considered. In view of the fact that the writ petitioner was a minor, the application was submitted after a lapse of 3 years from the date of the death of the deceased employee. Thereafter, the application was not pursued by the writ petitioner, till the impugned order was issued in proceeding dtd. 29/6/2018. Though the application was submitted on 16/10/2006, the impugned order was issued on 29/6/2018, after a lapse of about 12 years, from the date of submission of the application. The writ petitioner also slept over her right in respect of availing the benefit of the scheme of compassionate appointment.
