S. Vijayalakshmi vs Tamil Nadu Water Supply And on 13 June, 2005

36. Also, applying the judgment of this Court in S.Vijayalakshmi V. Tamil Nadu Water Supply and Drainage Board reported in 2005 (3) L.L.N. 706, referred to in paragraph 19 of this judgment, I am of the view that one of the legal heirs of the deceased workman Jaganathan is entitled to seek compassionate appointment. In that case, while granting terminal benefits, compassionate appointment was denied on the ground that the petitioner therein approached the Court belatedly after 9 years of passing of the order declining compassionate appointment. Paragraph 11 of the judgment in 2005 (3) L.L.N. 706 is extracted hereunder in this regard :

Dharangadhara Chemical Works Ltd vs State Of Saurashtra on 23 November, 1956

18.I am also fortified by the judgment of the Apex Court in Dharangadhara Chemical Works Ltd. V. State of Saurashtra reported in 1957-I-LLJ-477, wherein, also the management took a plea that the concerned workman involved in the dispute was an independent contractor and not a workman employed by them and he employed his own laboureres under him. In that case, the said independent contractor was also working along with the workers said to have been employed by him and the Supreme Court reasoned that therefore, he cannot be held as an independent Contractor and on the other hand, held that he shall be treated to be an employee directly employed by the management.

S.Gandhimathi vs The Dy.Registrar Of Cooperative ... on 28 March, 2003

4. A bare perusal of the aforesaid provision makes it clear that such provision casts an obligation on the employer to confer permanent status on an employee who has completed 480 days work in course of two years. It is of course true that during the life time of the husband of the petitioner, no such permanent status was actually conferred by any order of the management. It is also true that jurisdiction has been conferred on the inspector to conduct enquiry if necessary to find out whether an employee has completed 480 days or not. However, when facts are not in dispute, merely because no such enquiry had been conducted by the inspector, the petitioner's husband cannot be denied the benefits of the Act. In view of the mandatory nature of the provision, it shall be taken that an employee who had completed 480 days in a period of two years was permanent. This view receives considerable support from the decision reported in S.Gandhimathi V. Deputy Registrar of Co-operative Society (Milk), Tirunelveli and others [2003 (3) L.L.N. 743].

Union Of India And Ors vs Bhagwan Singh on 30 August, 1995

11. So far as the claim regarding appointment on compassionate ground is concerned, the matter stands on a different footing. As already noticed, the application for appointment on compassionate ground was rejected long back in 1989. Unlike the payment of family pension, which is considered as a part of Article 21 of the Constitution and which is a continuing right, it cannot be said that there is any fundamental right to claim appointment on compassionate ground. As held by the Supreme Court in several cases, such as Union of India & Others V. Bhagwan Singh [1996 (1) L.L.N. 577] and State of Uttar Pradesh and Others V. Paras Nath [1999 (4) L.L.N. 80], the provision providing for appointment on compassionate grounds is to enable his legal heirs or dependents of the deceased employee to get appointment as they should not suffer due to the loss of earning bread winner of the family. In the present case, the rejection letter was communicated in 1989. Thereafter, the petitioner had remained quiet for about a decade. In such view of the matter, the prayer, so far as appointment on compassionate ground is concerned, is obviously hit by the principles of laches and such relief cannot be granted.
