Include divorced daughter within definition of Family for Compassionate Appointments: Allahabad HC to Govt. [Read Judgment]

Live Law  

The Allahabad High Court has directed the Principal Secretary Law/Legal Remembrancer, U.P to take necessary steps with regard to the Uttar Pradesh Recruitment of Dependents of Government Servants Rules, 1974 which do not include a divorced daughter within the definition of family, for the purpose of compassionate appointments in the event of death of a government employee. The Allahabad High Court has directed the Principal Secretary Law/Legal Remembrancer, U.P to take necessary steps with regard to the Uttar Pradesh Recruitment of Dependents of Government Servants Rules, 1974 which do not include a divorced daughter within the definition of family, for the purpose of compassionate appointments in the event of death of a government employee while on duty. But that itself should not deprived her of a benefit of a compassionate appointment at par with a widowed daughter.” The Court was hearing a petition filed by Ms. Roobi Mansoori, who had sought quashing of an order whereby her claim for appointment on compassionate grounds was rejected, in view of the Uttar Pradesh Recruitment of Dependents of Government Servants Rules, 1974. If the benefit of the compassionate appointment can be given to an unmarried and widowed daughter, there appears to be absolutely no reason as to why the same benefit cannot be extended to a divorced daughter who does not belong to the family of her in-laws after the divorce and her father after the cessation of her marriage.” Considering the humanitarian grounds involved, it then directed reconsideration of the Rules.
