Supreme Court: Compassionate appointment is not a vested right

The court in the case observed and has stated that the compassionate appointment is always subject to proper and strict scrutiny of the various parameters.

The bench comprising of Justice Abhay S Oka, Ahsanuddin Amanullah and Justice Augustine George Masih was hearing the present matter.

The bench in the case was hearing an appeal filed by a man whose claim for compassionate appointment on account of the death of his father, a police constable, was denied.

However, the petitioner's father died when he was 7 years old in 1997 and applied for compassionate appointment in 2008 after attaining majority.

The Haryana Government rejected the claim citing the 1999 policy which introduced a three-year limit after an employee's death.
