married daughter is eligible to get government job of her deceased's father on compassionate grounds, the Chhattisgarh High Court has observed. Justice Sanjay K Agrawal made the observation on Tuesday while hearing a petition filed by Sarojani Bhoi (28) who had challenged the state government on the ground that she was not given the job of her father who passed away in 2011.

The HC cited that "policy of compassionate appointment excluding married daughters for consideration is a retrograde policy of the welfare state, and violative of Article 16 (2) (no discrimination on grounds of religion, caste, sex etc) of the Constitution."

Married daughter is entitled to compassionate appointment 

Number of judgments that married daughter is entitled to compassionate appointment 

not necessary that she should be deserted by her husband 

File writ petition in HC if married daughter is denied compassionate appointment 

-  As per law, a married daughter is eligible to get government job , on compassionate ground , after the demise of her father , if she undertakes to look after the other dependent of the deceased.

- Hence, your wife, being the daughter of the deceased employee is eligible to get the compassionate appointment , on the condition that no other family members of the deceased are having objection for the same.

- Further, you should know, that the maximum age limit is 35 years in case of a son or daughter for getting the compassionate appointment . 

- The full bench of Uttarakhand High Court comprising , the Chief Justice Ramesh Ranganathan, Justice Lok Pal Singh and Justice R.C. Khulbe observed that "Just as a son continues to be the son of the deceased Government servant, both before and after marriage, so does the daughter. The mere fact that she is married does not result in her ceasing to be the daughter of the deceased Government servant.

- Hence, legally she is eligible to get the job on the ground of compassionate ground, and department cannot refuse for the same as per law.

Good luck and dont forget to rating Positively. 

Yes she is available for the same

There is no vested right of dependent family members of the deceased employee.

The right of a dependent family member of the deceased for compassionate appointment accrues only when there is a provision of the Service Rules of the deceased employee with regard thereto.

In the instant case there being no Service Rule for compassionate appointment in favour of a married daughter, she cna not claim the same as a matter of right. 

Yes , so many judgements , married daughter eligible for compassionate appointment but have to show dependant on father.

Have to file writ if authority do not agree.

As per judgement of One of High Court, Married daughter is eligible for compensate appointment. ... A married daughter is eligible for a job on compassionate ground in case of demise of her father.

G.O.Ms.No.155, Labour and Employment Department, dated 16.07.1993 provided compassionate appointment to married daughters of government servant, if the daughter was abandoned by her husband or a divorcee or a widow i.e., G.O.Ms.No.155 included certain categories of married daughters to claim compassionate appointment. However, discriminatory treatment was not removed in total, that is, while marriage is not a pre-condition prescribed in the matter of providing compassionate appointment to sons of a deceased government servant, the same was placed as a condition in the case of daughters.

You can refer to 

Writ Petition(MD)No.2951 of 2017

You can refer to the judgment cited in the previous post which may useful to your situation.

Yes, you are right that as per the constitution of India both men and women are equal.

 G.O.Ms.No.155, Labour and Employment Department, dated 16.07.1993 provided compassionate appointment to married daughters of government servant, if the daughter was abandoned by her husband or a divorcee or a widow i.e., G.O.Ms.No.155 included certain categories of married daughters to claim compassionate appointment

That GO has been overruled 

Thereafter, G.O.Ms.No.165, Labour and Employment Department, dated 30.08.2010 was issued making further improvements in the Scheme. As per G.O.Ms.No.165, the married daughter could also claim compassionate appointment, if she was unmarried at the time of making application. In the said Government Order, it is stated that taking into account the decisions of this Court, such relaxation was granted in providing compassionate appointment to the married daughters, who got married subsequent to the death of the Government Servant and more particularly after making application for compassionate appointment, i.e, G.O.Ms.No.165 also did not render full justice to women. Still, discriminatory treatment was meted out to women. While no such condition is prescribed in the case of a son, that the son shall be unmarried at the time of making application after the death of the deceased government servant, a condition is prescribed in the case of daughter that she shall be unmarried at the time of making application for compassionate appointment.

Dear Sir,

Married daughters eligible for compassionate ground job: Calcutta High Court.

The Calcutta High Court today ruled that a married daughter is eligible for a job on compassionate ground in case of demise of her father in harness.

A three-judge bench headed by acting Chief Justice Nishita Mhatre declared unconstitutional a provision of West Bengal government's Labour and Panchayat departments that debarred married daughters from being given jobs on compassionate ground.

The bench, which also comprised justices Dipankar Datta and T Chakraborty, directed that the state government would mention only 'daughter' instead of 'unmarried daughter' in its future notifications for jobs on such grounds.

The bench rejected appeals by the state government that claimed that married daughters were not considered to be dependents of their parents.

A woman named Arpita Sarkar and two others had challenged notifications by the labour and panchayat departments before the high court in 2014.

Justice B Somadder had passed an order that year stating that the provision for excluding married daughters from being given jobs on compassionate ground was violative of Article 14 and 16 of the Constitution.

This order was challenged by the state government before a division bench comprising the then Chief Justice Manjula Chellur and Justice Joymalyo Bagchi which formed the three- judge bench for hearing the appeal.

After extensive hearing, the three-judge bench passed its order today.
