SANTOSH KUMAR SHARMA Vs. DISTRICT JUDGE UNNAO

JUDGEMENT

(1.) I must first express my displeasure of the way the District Judge, Unnao, has dealt with the case and despite the Court's observation/direction, rejected the petitioner's application for appointment in a Class-IV post on compassionate ground.

(2.) The short facts giving rise to the present writ petition may briefly be stated thus :

(3.) The District Judge, respondent No. 1 on being noticed has filed his return contending, inter alia, that there is no need of giving appointment to the petitioner on the post of Class-IV because of the reason that nine Courts in the District of Unnao are lying vacant for which ten Class IV employees who were newly appointed have been ceased to work. He has further pleaded that the circular of the Court and the judicial pronouncement of the, Supreme Court reference of which he made in his order restrained him from giving compassionate appointment to the petitioner.
