(1.) The instant writ petition has been filed by the petitioner challenging the order dated 22nd September, 2017 passed by Director General of Prison, Rajasthan, Jaipur. The petitioner is son of the deceased Government employee and petitioner's father died on 15th May, 2014, while he was in service working on the post of Head Constable.
(2.) The petitioner was given appointment on Compassionate basis on 15th September, 2014.
