Santosh Kumar Dubey vs State Of U.P. &Ors on 18 May, 2009

Santosh Kumar Dubey v. State of U.P., (2009) 6 SCC 481 "12. The request for appointment on compassionate grounds should be reasonable and proximate to the time of the death of the bread earner of the family, inasmuch as the very purpose of giving such benefit is to make financial help available to the family to overcome sudden economic crisis occurring in the family of the deceased who has died in harness.

Mohd. Fiazuddin Khan vs Govt. Of India And Ors. on 25 November, 1975

In view of principles laid down in the aforesaid judgments, we are unable to countenance the order of learned writ court. No directions could have been issued for consideration on compassionate ground after almost 24 years from the date of death of father of respondent No.1. The very purpose of grant of compassionate appointment will be defeated if claims of compassionate appointment after decades are entertained."
