My husband, who served as Superintendent of Police in the Pondicherry administration, passed away in July 1996. My son, a well-built young man with a postgraduate degree, applied for a compassionate appointment as per existing rules. However, his application was rejected on the grounds that his case wasn’t considered suitable. He submitted a representation in March 2001, which has been repeatedly rejected. Pondicherry has granted a similar compassionate appointment to another individual. Can anyone advise on how to help my son secure this appointment?
Best Answer
Your son’s case appears to have merit, considering the precedent of a similar appointment granted by Pondicherry. You should consult a lawyer specializing in administrative law to challenge the rejection based on the existing rules and the precedent set. Consider filing a writ petition in the Madras High Court highlighting the unfair treatment and the precedent case, seeking judicial intervention to compel the authorities to reconsider your son’s application.
