After the death of her husband the petitioner applied for compassionate appointment and all the documents required was filed within stipulated period i.e. 06.01.2012. On 24.02.2014, a committee was constituted under the Chairmanship of Deputy Commissioner, Dumka for appointment on compassionate ground and the case of the petitioner was considered and rejected by the Committee on the ground that educational certificate given by the petitioner was not from a recognised institution. After rejection of the case of the petitioner on 24.02.2014, again she made a fresh application with a fresh certificate granted by Hindi Vidyapith, Deoghar for reconsideration of her case.

(S) No. 922 of 201 6 respondent-State fairly submits that the case of the petitioner was rejected earlier therefore she can not apply for second time on the same ground but the establishment committee has considered her case and till date no order has been passed. Mr. Akhtar fairly submits that her case is under consideration and the respondent authority will be passing reasoned order in accordance with law.
