The petitioner who is grandson of late Shri Sadhu Ram is seeking mandamus and direction to the respondents for providing him employment/ appointment on compassionate ground under the Rajasthan Recruitment of Dependents of Government Servants Dying while in service Rules, 1975 (hereinafter to be referred to as the Rules). It is stated that late Shri Sadhu Ram was employed in Education Department as Teacher Gr. III and while he was in service, he died on December 30, 1984. It appears that he left Shri Bhagwan Sahai (son) and his wife Smt. Hazari Devi behind him. According to the petitioner, he moved an application on March 16, 1994 for getting appointment under the Rules of 1975. His claim was rejected on the ground that he was not entitled to get appointment under the Rules.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">2. It is contended by the learned counsel that the claim of the petitioner has been wrongly denied as the benefit under the Rules could be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">3. The scheme of the rules of 1975 has the purpose of providing appointment on compassionate ground to mitigate the hardship due to the death of the bread earner in the family. It cannot be disputed that the appointment on compassionate ground is an exception to the equality clause under Article 14, otherwise, any such appointment merely on the ground of being a dependent of an ex-employee of the State, shall be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution. The question of appointment of one of the dependants of an employee of the State,dying while in service has assumed importance and cases have come before this Court where the benefit has been obtained by misusing the provisions of the Rules. Hence, it has become necessary that there should be a proper check and balance in providing such employment/ appointments.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">4. In the case of Umesh Kumar Nagpal v. State of Haryana (1995-I-LLJ-798), the Apex Court has held that as a rule, appointment in public services should be made strictly on the basis of open invitation of applications and merit. The appointment on compassionate ground was an exception to the aforesaid rule, taking into consideration the fact of death of the employee while in service and leaving his family without any means of livelihood . In such cases, the object is to enable the family to tide over sudden crisis. It was also laid down that such appointments on compassionate grounds have to be made in accordance with rules, regulations or administrative instructions and taking into consideration the financial condition of the family of the deceased. Then their Lordships observed as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'It is obvious from the above observations that the High Court endorses the policy of the State Government to make compassionate appointment in posts equivalent to the posts held by the deceased employees and above classes III and IV. It is unnecessary to reiterate that these observations are contrary to law. If the dependent of the deceased employee finds it below his dignity to accept the post offered, he is free not to do so. The post is not offered to cater to his status but to see the family through the economic calamity.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> It was also impressed that appointments on compassionate ground cannot be made after lapse of reasonable period which must be specified in the rules because the right to suchemployment is not a vested right which can be exercised at any time in future.' </p><p style="text-align: justify;">5. In the instant case, the Government employee Sadhuram had died in the year 1984. He had left one son and his wife as dependents. No appointment was sought by the son probably due to the fact that he was engaged in business. The petitioner who is grandson of the deceased Government servant cannot be dependent on the deceased Government servant. He also does not fall within the definition of 'family' as provided under the Rules of 1975, which includes wife or husband, sons and unmarried or 'widow daughters and son/daughter adopted according to the provisions of law by the deceased Government servant,' who were dependent on the deceased Government servant. Strong reliance is placed on the proviso to the aforesaid definition of 'family'. The proviso reads as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'Provided that if no such member of the family be eligible for getting benefit under these rules, the benefit available under these Rules may be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow or the Guardian of the children of the deceased with the specific approval of the Deptt. of Personnel.'</p><p style="text-align: justify;">6. In the instant case, admittedly, the son of the deceased was eligible for getting benefit under the rules and he did not like to take the benefit. Hence, the proviso does not come into application. Otherwise also, the expression close relative of the deceased is so vague and wide that prima facie it appears to be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances. I find that the claim of the petitioner to get appointment under the Rule of 1975 has been rightly declined.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Consequently, the petition fails and it is hereby dismissed.<p style="text-align: justify;"></p><p style="text-align: justify;">',

The petitioner who is grandson of late Shri Sadhu Ram is seeking mandamus and direction to the respondents for providing him employment/ appointment on compassionate ground under the Rajasthan Recruitment of Dependents of Government Servants Dying while in service Rules, 1975 (hereinafter to be referred to as the Rules). It is stated that late Shri Sadhu Ram was employed in Education Department as Teacher Gr. III and while he was in service, he died on December 30, 1984. It appears that he left Shri Bhagwan Sahai (son) and his wife Smt. Hazari Devi behind him. According to the petitioner, he moved an application on March 16, 1994 for getting appointment under the Rules of 1975. His claim was rejected on the ground that he was not entitled to get appointment under the Rules.</p><p>2. It is contended by the learned counsel that the claim of the petitioner has been wrongly denied as the benefit under the Rules could be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow.</p><p>3. The scheme of the rules of 1975 has the purpose of providing appointment on compassionate ground to mitigate the hardship due to the death of the bread earner in the family. It cannot be disputed that the appointment on compassionate ground is an exception to the equality clause under Article 14, otherwise, any such appointment merely on the ground of being a dependent of an ex-employee of the State, shall be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution. The question of appointment of one of the dependants of an employee of the State,dying while in service has assumed importance and cases have come before this Court where the benefit has been obtained by misusing the provisions of the Rules. Hence, it has become necessary that there should be a proper check and balance in providing such employment/ appointments.</p><p>4. In the case of Umesh Kumar Nagpal v. State of Haryana (1995-I-LLJ-798), the Apex Court has held that as a rule, appointment in public services should be made strictly on the basis of open invitation of applications and merit. The appointment on compassionate ground was an exception to the aforesaid rule, taking into consideration the fact of death of the employee while in service and leaving his family without any means of livelihood . In such cases, the object is to enable the family to tide over sudden crisis. It was also laid down that such appointments on compassionate grounds have to be made in accordance with rules, regulations or administrative instructions and taking into consideration the financial condition of the family of the deceased. Then their Lordships observed as under :</p><p>'It is obvious from the above observations that the High Court endorses the policy of the State Government to make compassionate appointment in posts equivalent to the posts held by the deceased employees and above classes III and IV. It is unnecessary to reiterate that these observations are contrary to law. If the dependent of the deceased employee finds it below his dignity to accept the post offered, he is free not to do so. The post is not offered to cater to his status but to see the family through the economic calamity.</p><p> It was also impressed that appointments on compassionate ground cannot be made after lapse of reasonable period which must be specified in the rules because the right to suchemployment is not a vested right which can be exercised at any time in future.' </p><p>5. In the instant case, the Government employee Sadhuram had died in the year 1984. He had left one son and his wife as dependents. No appointment was sought by the son probably due to the fact that he was engaged in business. The petitioner who is grandson of the deceased Government servant cannot be dependent on the deceased Government servant. He also does not fall within the definition of 'family' as provided under the Rules of 1975, which includes wife or husband, sons and unmarried or 'widow daughters and son/daughter adopted according to the provisions of law by the deceased Government servant,' who were dependent on the deceased Government servant. Strong reliance is placed on the proviso to the aforesaid definition of 'family'. The proviso reads as under :</p><p>'Provided that if no such member of the family be eligible for getting benefit under these rules, the benefit available under these Rules may be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow or the Guardian of the children of the deceased with the specific approval of the Deptt. of Personnel.'</p><p>6. In the instant case, admittedly, the son of the deceased was eligible for getting benefit under the rules and he did not like to take the benefit. Hence, the proviso does not come into application. Otherwise also, the expression close relative of the deceased is so vague and wide that prima facie it appears to be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution.</p><p>Taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances. I find that the claim of the petitioner to get appointment under the Rule of 1975 has been rightly declined.</p><p>Consequently, the petition fails and it is hereby dismissed.<p></p><p>',

It cannot be disputed that the appointment on compassionate ground is an exception to the equality clause under Article 14, otherwise, any such appointment merely on the ground of being a dependent of an ex-employee of the State, shall be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution. The question of appointment of one of the dependants of an employee of the State,dying while in service has assumed importance and cases have come before this Court where the benefit has been obtained by misusing the provisions of the Rules. Hence, it has become necessary that there should be a proper check and balance in providing such employment/ appointments.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">4. In the case of Umesh Kumar Nagpal v. State of Haryana (1995-I-LLJ-798), the Apex Court has held that as a rule, appointment in public services should be made strictly on the basis of open invitation of applications and merit. The appointment on compassionate ground was an exception to the aforesaid rule, taking into consideration the fact of death of the employee while in service and leaving his family without any means of livelihood . In such cases, the object is to enable the family to tide over sudden crisis. It was also laid down that such appointments on compassionate grounds have to be made in accordance with rules, regulations or administrative instructions and taking into consideration the financial condition of the family of the deceased. Then their Lordships observed as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'It is obvious from the above observations that the High Court endorses the policy of the State Government to make compassionate appointment in posts equivalent to the posts held by the deceased employees and above classes III and IV. It is unnecessary to reiterate that these observations are contrary to law. If the dependent of the deceased employee finds it below his dignity to accept the post offered, he is free not to do so. The post is not offered to cater to his status but to see the family through the economic calamity.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> It was also impressed that appointments on compassionate ground cannot be made after lapse of reasonable period which must be specified in the rules because the right to suchemployment is not a vested right which can be exercised at any time in future.' </p><p style="text-align: justify;">5. In the instant case, the Government employee Sadhuram had died in the year 1984. He had left one son and his wife as dependents. No appointment was sought by the son probably due to the fact that he was engaged in business. The petitioner who is grandson of the deceased Government servant cannot be dependent on the deceased Government servant. He also does not fall within the definition of 'family' as provided under the Rules of 1975, which includes wife or husband, sons and unmarried or 'widow daughters and son/daughter adopted according to the provisions of law by the deceased Government servant,' who were dependent on the deceased Government servant. Strong reliance is placed on the proviso to the aforesaid definition of 'family'. The proviso reads as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'Provided that if no such member of the family be eligible for getting benefit under these rules, the benefit available under these Rules may be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow or the Guardian of the children of the deceased with the specific approval of the Deptt. of Personnel.'</p><p style="text-align: justify;">6. In the instant case, admittedly, the son of the deceased was eligible for getting benefit under the rules and he did not like to take the benefit. Hence, the proviso does not come into application.

It appears that he left Shri Bhagwan Sahai (son) and his wife Smt. Hazari Devi behind him. According to the petitioner, he moved an application on March 16, 1994 for getting appointment under the Rules of 1975. His claim was rejected on the ground that he was not entitled to get appointment under the Rules.</p><p>2. It is contended by the learned counsel that the claim of the petitioner has been wrongly denied as the benefit under the Rules could be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow.</p><p>3. The scheme of the rules of 1975 has the purpose of providing appointment on compassionate ground to mitigate the hardship due to the death of the bread earner in the family. It cannot be disputed that the appointment on compassionate ground is an exception to the equality clause under Article 14, otherwise, any such appointment merely on the ground of being a dependent of an ex-employee of the State, shall be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution. The question of appointment of one of the dependants of an employee of the State,dying while in service has assumed importance and cases have come before this Court where the benefit has been obtained by misusing the provisions of the Rules. Hence, it has become necessary that there should be a proper check and balance in providing such employment/ appointments.</p><p>4. In the case of Umesh Kumar Nagpal v. State of Haryana (1995-I-LLJ-798), the Apex Court has held that as a rule, appointment in public services should be made strictly on the basis of open invitation of applications and merit. The appointment on compassionate ground was an exception to the aforesaid rule, taking into consideration the fact of death of the employee while in service and leaving his family without any means of livelihood . In such cases, the object is to enable the family to tide over sudden crisis. It was also laid down that such appointments on compassionate grounds have to be made in accordance with rules, regulations or administrative instructions and taking into consideration the financial condition of the family of the deceased. Then their Lordships observed as under :</p><p>'It is obvious from the above observations that the High Court endorses the policy of the State Government to make compassionate appointment in posts equivalent to the posts held by the deceased employees and above classes III and IV. It is unnecessary to reiterate that these observations are contrary to law. If the dependent of the deceased employee finds it below his dignity to accept the post offered, he is free not to do so. The post is not offered to cater to his status but to see the family through the economic calamity.</p><p> It was also impressed that appointments on compassionate ground cannot be made after lapse of reasonable period which must be specified in the rules because the right to suchemployment is not a vested right which can be exercised at any time in future.' </p><p>5. In the instant case, the Government employee Sadhuram had died in the year 1984. He had left one son and his wife as dependents. No appointment was sought by the son probably due to the fact that he was engaged in business. The petitioner who is grandson of the deceased Government servant cannot be dependent on the deceased Government servant. He also does not fall within the definition of 'family' as provided under the Rules of 1975, which includes wife or husband, sons and unmarried or 'widow daughters and son/daughter adopted according to the provisions of law by the deceased Government servant,' who were dependent on the deceased Government servant.

The petitioner who is grandson of late Shri Sadhu Ram is seeking mandamus and direction to the respondents for providing him employment/ appointment on compassionate ground under the Rajasthan Recruitment of Dependents of Government Servants Dying while in service Rules, 1975 (hereinafter to be referred to as the Rules). It is stated that late Shri Sadhu Ram was employed in Education Department as Teacher Gr. III and while he was in service, he died on December 30, 1984. It appears that he left Shri Bhagwan Sahai (son) and his wife Smt. Hazari Devi behind him. According to the petitioner, he moved an application on March 16, 1994 for getting appointment under the Rules of 1975. His claim was rejected on the ground that he was not entitled to get appointment under the Rules.

His claim was rejected on the ground that he was not entitled to get appointment under the Rules.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">2. It is contended by the learned counsel that the claim of the petitioner has been wrongly denied as the benefit under the Rules could be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">3. The scheme of the rules of 1975 has the purpose of providing appointment on compassionate ground to mitigate the hardship due to the death of the bread earner in the family. It cannot be disputed that the appointment on compassionate ground is an exception to the equality clause under Article 14, otherwise, any such appointment merely on the ground of being a dependent of an ex-employee of the State, shall be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution. The question of appointment of one of the dependants of an employee of the State,dying while in service has assumed importance and cases have come before this Court where the benefit has been obtained by misusing the provisions of the Rules. Hence, it has become necessary that there should be a proper check and balance in providing such employment/ appointments.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">4. In the case of Umesh Kumar Nagpal v. State of Haryana (1995-I-LLJ-798), the Apex Court has held that as a rule, appointment in public services should be made strictly on the basis of open invitation of applications and merit. The appointment on compassionate ground was an exception to the aforesaid rule, taking into consideration the fact of death of the employee while in service and leaving his family without any means of livelihood . In such cases, the object is to enable the family to tide over sudden crisis. It was also laid down that such appointments on compassionate grounds have to be made in accordance with rules, regulations or administrative instructions and taking into consideration the financial condition of the family of the deceased. Then their Lordships observed as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'It is obvious from the above observations that the High Court endorses the policy of the State Government to make compassionate appointment in posts equivalent to the posts held by the deceased employees and above classes III and IV. It is unnecessary to reiterate that these observations are contrary to law. If the dependent of the deceased employee finds it below his dignity to accept the post offered, he is free not to do so. The post is not offered to cater to his status but to see the family through the economic calamity.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> It was also impressed that appointments on compassionate ground cannot be made after lapse of reasonable period which must be specified in the rules because the right to suchemployment is not a vested right which can be exercised at any time in future.' </p><p style="text-align: justify;">5. In the instant case, the Government employee Sadhuram had died in the year 1984. He had left one son and his wife as dependents. No appointment was sought by the son probably due to the fact that he was engaged in business. The petitioner who is grandson of the deceased Government servant cannot be dependent on the deceased Government servant. He also does not fall within the definition of 'family' as provided under the Rules of 1975, which includes wife or husband, sons and unmarried or 'widow daughters and son/daughter adopted according to the provisions of law by the deceased Government servant,' who were dependent on the deceased Government servant. Strong reliance is placed on the proviso to the aforesaid definition of 'family'. The proviso reads as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'Provided that if no such member of the family be eligible for getting benefit under these rules, the benefit available under these Rules may be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow or the Guardian of the children of the deceased with the specific approval of the Deptt. of Personnel.'</p><p style="text-align: justify;">6. In the instant case, admittedly, the son of the deceased was eligible for getting benefit under the rules and he did not like to take the benefit. Hence, the proviso does not come into application.

The petitioner who is grandson of late Shri Sadhu Ram is seeking mandamus and direction to the respondents for providing him employment/ appointment on compassionate ground under the Rajasthan Recruitment of Dependents of Government Servants Dying while in service Rules, 1975 (hereinafter to be referred to as the Rules). It is stated that late Shri Sadhu Ram was employed in Education Department as Teacher Gr. III and while he was in service, he died on December 30, 1984. It appears that he left Shri Bhagwan Sahai (son) and his wife Smt. Hazari Devi behind him. According to the petitioner, he moved an application on March 16, 1994 for getting appointment under the Rules of 1975. His claim was rejected on the ground that he was not entitled to get appointment under the Rules.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">2. It is contended by the learned counsel that the claim of the petitioner has been wrongly denied as the benefit under the Rules could be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">3. The scheme of the rules of 1975 has the purpose of providing appointment on compassionate ground to mitigate the hardship due to the death of the bread earner in the family. It cannot be disputed that the appointment on compassionate ground is an exception to the equality clause under Article 14, otherwise, any such appointment merely on the ground of being a dependent of an ex-employee of the State, shall be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution. The question of appointment of one of the dependants of an employee of the State,dying while in service has assumed importance and cases have come before this Court where the benefit has been obtained by misusing the provisions of the Rules. Hence, it has become necessary that there should be a proper check and balance in providing such employment/ appointments.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">4. In the case of Umesh Kumar Nagpal v. State of Haryana (1995-I-LLJ-798), the Apex Court has held that as a rule, appointment in public services should be made strictly on the basis of open invitation of applications and merit. The appointment on compassionate ground was an exception to the aforesaid rule, taking into consideration the fact of death of the employee while in service and leaving his family without any means of livelihood . In such cases, the object is to enable the family to tide over sudden crisis. It was also laid down that such appointments on compassionate grounds have to be made in accordance with rules, regulations or administrative instructions and taking into consideration the financial condition of the family of the deceased. Then their Lordships observed as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'It is obvious from the above observations that the High Court endorses the policy of the State Government to make compassionate appointment in posts equivalent to the posts held by the deceased employees and above classes III and IV. It is unnecessary to reiterate that these observations are contrary to law. If the dependent of the deceased employee finds it below his dignity to accept the post offered, he is free not to do so. The post is not offered to cater to his status but to see the family through the economic calamity.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> It was also impressed that appointments on compassionate ground cannot be made after lapse of reasonable period which must be specified in the rules because the right to suchemployment is not a vested right which can be exercised at any time in future.' </p><p style="text-align: justify;">5. In the instant case, the Government employee Sadhuram had died in the year 1984. He had left one son and his wife as dependents. No appointment was sought by the son probably due to the fact that he was engaged in business. The petitioner who is grandson of the deceased Government servant cannot be dependent on the deceased Government servant. He also does not fall within the definition of 'family' as provided under the Rules of 1975, which includes wife or husband, sons and unmarried or 'widow daughters and son/daughter adopted according to the provisions of law by the deceased Government servant,' who were dependent on the deceased Government servant. Strong reliance is placed on the proviso to the aforesaid definition of 'family'. The proviso reads as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'Provided that if no such member of the family be eligible for getting benefit under these rules, the benefit available under these Rules may be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow or the Guardian of the children of the deceased with the specific approval of the Deptt. of Personnel.'</p><p style="text-align: justify;">6. In the instant case, admittedly, the son of the deceased was eligible for getting benefit under the rules and he did not like to take the benefit. Hence, the proviso does not come into application. Otherwise also, the expression close relative of the deceased is so vague and wide that prima facie it appears to be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances.

The petitioner who is grandson of late Shri Sadhu Ram is seeking mandamus and direction to the respondents for providing him employment/ appointment on compassionate ground under the Rajasthan Recruitment of Dependents of Government Servants Dying while in service Rules, 1975 (hereinafter to be referred to as the Rules). It is stated that late Shri Sadhu Ram was employed in Education Department as Teacher Gr. III and while he was in service, he died on December 30, 1984. It appears that he left Shri Bhagwan Sahai (son) and his wife Smt. Hazari Devi behind him. According to the petitioner, he moved an application on March 16, 1994 for getting appointment under the Rules of 1975. His claim was rejected on the ground that he was not entitled to get appointment under the Rules.</p><p>2. It is contended by the learned counsel that the claim of the petitioner has been wrongly denied as the benefit under the Rules could be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow.</p><p>3. The scheme of the rules of 1975 has the purpose of providing appointment on compassionate ground to mitigate the hardship due to the death of the bread earner in the family. It cannot be disputed that the appointment on compassionate ground is an exception to the equality clause under Article 14, otherwise, any such appointment merely on the ground of being a dependent of an ex-employee of the State, shall be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution. The question of appointment of one of the dependants of an employee of the State,dying while in service has assumed importance and cases have come before this Court where the benefit has been obtained by misusing the provisions of the Rules. Hence, it has become necessary that there should be a proper check and balance in providing such employment/ appointments.</p><p>4. In the case of Umesh Kumar Nagpal v. State of Haryana (1995-I-LLJ-798), the Apex Court has held that as a rule, appointment in public services should be made strictly on the basis of open invitation of applications and merit. The appointment on compassionate ground was an exception to the aforesaid rule, taking into consideration the fact of death of the employee while in service and leaving his family without any means of livelihood . In such cases, the object is to enable the family to tide over sudden crisis. It was also laid down that such appointments on compassionate grounds have to be made in accordance with rules, regulations or administrative instructions and taking into consideration the financial condition of the family of the deceased. Then their Lordships observed as under :</p><p>'It is obvious from the above observations that the High Court endorses the policy of the State Government to make compassionate appointment in posts equivalent to the posts held by the deceased employees and above classes III and IV. It is unnecessary to reiterate that these observations are contrary to law. If the dependent of the deceased employee finds it below his dignity to accept the post offered, he is free not to do so. The post is not offered to cater to his status but to see the family through the economic calamity.</p><p> It was also impressed that appointments on compassionate ground cannot be made after lapse of reasonable period which must be specified in the rules because the right to suchemployment is not a vested right which can be exercised at any time in future.' </p><p>5. In the instant case, the Government employee Sadhuram had died in the year 1984. He had left one son and his wife as dependents. No appointment was sought by the son probably due to the fact that he was engaged in business. The petitioner who is grandson of the deceased Government servant cannot be dependent on the deceased Government servant. He also does not fall within the definition of 'family' as provided under the Rules of 1975, which includes wife or husband, sons and unmarried or 'widow daughters and son/daughter adopted according to the provisions of law by the deceased Government servant,' who were dependent on the deceased Government servant. Strong reliance is placed on the proviso to the aforesaid definition of 'family'.

The petitioner who is grandson of late Shri Sadhu Ram is seeking mandamus and direction to the respondents for providing him employment/ appointment on compassionate ground under the Rajasthan Recruitment of Dependents of Government Servants Dying while in service Rules, 1975 (hereinafter to be referred to as the Rules). It is stated that late Shri Sadhu Ram was employed in Education Department as Teacher Gr. III and while he was in service, he died on December 30, 1984. It appears that he left Shri Bhagwan Sahai (son) and his wife Smt. Hazari Devi behind him. According to the petitioner, he moved an application on March 16, 1994 for getting appointment under the Rules of 1975. His claim was rejected on the ground that he was not entitled to get appointment under the Rules.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">2. It is contended by the learned counsel that the claim of the petitioner has been wrongly denied as the benefit under the Rules could be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">3. The scheme of the rules of 1975 has the purpose of providing appointment on compassionate ground to mitigate the hardship due to the death of the bread earner in the family. It cannot be disputed that the appointment on compassionate ground is an exception to the equality clause under Article 14, otherwise, any such appointment merely on the ground of being a dependent of an ex-employee of the State, shall be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution. The question of appointment of one of the dependants of an employee of the State,dying while in service has assumed importance and cases have come before this Court where the benefit has been obtained by misusing the provisions of the Rules. Hence, it has become necessary that there should be a proper check and balance in providing such employment/ appointments.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">4. In the case of Umesh Kumar Nagpal v. State of Haryana (1995-I-LLJ-798), the Apex Court has held that as a rule, appointment in public services should be made strictly on the basis of open invitation of applications and merit. The appointment on compassionate ground was an exception to the aforesaid rule, taking into consideration the fact of death of the employee while in service and leaving his family without any means of livelihood . In such cases, the object is to enable the family to tide over sudden crisis. It was also laid down that such appointments on compassionate grounds have to be made in accordance with rules, regulations or administrative instructions and taking into consideration the financial condition of the family of the deceased. Then their Lordships observed as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'It is obvious from the above observations that the High Court endorses the policy of the State Government to make compassionate appointment in posts equivalent to the posts held by the deceased employees and above classes III and IV. It is unnecessary to reiterate that these observations are contrary to law. If the dependent of the deceased employee finds it below his dignity to accept the post offered, he is free not to do so. The post is not offered to cater to his status but to see the family through the economic calamity.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> It was also impressed that appointments on compassionate ground cannot be made after lapse of reasonable period which must be specified in the rules because the right to suchemployment is not a vested right which can be exercised at any time in future.' </p><p style="text-align: justify;">5. In the instant case, the Government employee Sadhuram had died in the year 1984. He had left one son and his wife as dependents. No appointment was sought by the son probably due to the fact that he was engaged in business. The petitioner who is grandson of the deceased Government servant cannot be dependent on the deceased Government servant.

The question of appointment of one of the dependants of an employee of the State,dying while in service has assumed importance and cases have come before this Court where the benefit has been obtained by misusing the provisions of the Rules. Hence, it has become necessary that there should be a proper check and balance in providing such employment/ appointments.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">4. In the case of Umesh Kumar Nagpal v. State of Haryana (1995-I-LLJ-798), the Apex Court has held that as a rule, appointment in public services should be made strictly on the basis of open invitation of applications and merit. The appointment on compassionate ground was an exception to the aforesaid rule, taking into consideration the fact of death of the employee while in service and leaving his family without any means of livelihood . In such cases, the object is to enable the family to tide over sudden crisis. It was also laid down that such appointments on compassionate grounds have to be made in accordance with rules, regulations or administrative instructions and taking into consideration the financial condition of the family of the deceased. Then their Lordships observed as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'It is obvious from the above observations that the High Court endorses the policy of the State Government to make compassionate appointment in posts equivalent to the posts held by the deceased employees and above classes III and IV. It is unnecessary to reiterate that these observations are contrary to law. If the dependent of the deceased employee finds it below his dignity to accept the post offered, he is free not to do so. The post is not offered to cater to his status but to see the family through the economic calamity.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> It was also impressed that appointments on compassionate ground cannot be made after lapse of reasonable period which must be specified in the rules because the right to suchemployment is not a vested right which can be exercised at any time in future.' </p><p style="text-align: justify;">5. In the instant case, the Government employee Sadhuram had died in the year 1984. He had left one son and his wife as dependents. No appointment was sought by the son probably due to the fact that he was engaged in business. The petitioner who is grandson of the deceased Government servant cannot be dependent on the deceased Government servant. He also does not fall within the definition of 'family' as provided under the Rules of 1975, which includes wife or husband, sons and unmarried or 'widow daughters and son/daughter adopted according to the provisions of law by the deceased Government servant,' who were dependent on the deceased Government servant. Strong reliance is placed on the proviso to the aforesaid definition of 'family'. The proviso reads as under :</p><p style="text-align: justify;">'Provided that if no such member of the family be eligible for getting benefit under these rules, the benefit available under these Rules may be extended to any other close relative of the deceased to be named by the widow or the Guardian of the children of the deceased with the specific approval of the Deptt. of Personnel.'</p><p style="text-align: justify;">6. In the instant case, admittedly, the son of the deceased was eligible for getting benefit under the rules and he did not like to take the benefit. Hence, the proviso does not come into application. Otherwise also, the expression close relative of the deceased is so vague and wide that prima facie it appears to be violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances. I find that the claim of the petitioner to get appointment under the Rule of 1975 has been rightly declined.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Consequently, the petition fails and it is hereby dismissed.<p style="text-align: justify;"></p><p style="text-align: justify;">',

The petitioner who is grandson of late Shri Sadhu Ram is seeking mandamus and direction to the respondents for providing him employment/ appointment on compassionate ground under the Rajasthan Recruitment of Dependents of Government Servants Dying while in service Rules, 1975 (hereinafter to be referred to as the Rules). It is stated that late Shri Sadhu Ram was employed in Education Department as Teacher Gr. III and while he was in service, he died on December 30, 1984. It appears that he left Shri Bhagwan Sahai (son) and his wife Smt. Hazari Devi behind him.

His claim was rejected on the ground that he was not entitled to get appointment under the Rules.</p><p>2.
