[9/10, 15:49] Sekarreporter 1: In the result, this Writ Petition is allowed and the impugned orders dated 29.09.2011 and 12.10.2011 passed by the 2nd respondent are hereby set aside. The 2nd respondent is directed to provide employment to the petitioner on compassionate ground on or before the end of December, 2020 and in case the petitioner is not provided employment on or before the expiry date, he is deemed to have entered service from 01.01.2021 and he is entitled to the salary of last grade employee till he is actually placed in service and the said amount could be recovered from the Officer responsible to comply with the order. Since the request of the petitioner was rejected on 12.10.2011 for the second time by the 2nd respondent and on account of setting aside of the said order now, the petitioner is deemed to have entered into service from 12.10.2011. However, he is not entitled to any service benefits, seniority, wages and the like and the interregnum period will be taken into account only for the purpose of terminal benefits like pension, gratuity, etc., as if he joined the service on the said date and for that purpose alone, he should be treated to be in continuous service. It is made clear that in this order, this Court does not direct the 2nd respondent to consider the appointment of the petitioner on compassionate ground as being done in the usual course, but specifically directs the 2nd respondent to provide employment to the petitioner on compassionate ground on or before the end of December, 2020 so as to avoid one more round of litigation. No costs.
