the following:-
O R D E R:
The
Scheme of compassionate appointment to the dependents of deceased Government employees
was ordered in G.O.Ms.No.687, General Administrative (Ser.A) Department, dated
03.10.1977 and such appointments shall be to the category of posts of Lower
Division Clerk (now Junior Assistant) or to the posts whose pay is equal or
less than that of Lower Division Clerk. In G.O.Ms.No.612, General Administrative
(Ser.A) Department, dated 30.10.1991, among others, it is ordered as follows: -
"2 (iv) If the dependents of the deceased employees
are eligible to be considered for any category of post whose pay is equal or
less than that of Junior Assistant (Lower Division Clerk) and if they satisfy
the qualifications and physical standards prescribed for such posts, they can be
considered for posts such as, Police Constables in Home Department, Excise
Constables in Excise Department, Helper Grade I and II in Forest Department,
Leading Fireman I Fireman in Fire Service Department etc. In any case, no
dependent of the deceased Government employee possessing higher qualifications
prescribed for the posts of Assistant Engineers, Assistant Executive Engineers,
Civil Assistant Surgeons etc., shall be considered for appointment to posts carrying
higher scale of pay such as Assistant Engineers, Assistant Executive Engineers,
Civil Assistant Surgeons etc.,
Since the clerical posts in Education Department / Educational Institutions are a few, the dependents of deceased employees can also be considered for the lowest teaching post i.e., posts at present carrying a scale of pay of Rs.1010-1800, in the Education Department / Educational Institutions, if they satisfy the qualifications prescribed under the rules to hold such posts.”
2. While that was the position, the scale of
pay of the Teaching posts was revised from time to time. The Scale of pay of a
teacher post is now higher than that of Junior Assistant, as detailed below:-
Category Revised
Scale of Pay
1) Junior Assistant Rs. 3290 - 6550
2) Teacher Rs.
3750 - 7650
In view
of the above, as per the scheme of compassionate appointment to dependents of
deceased government employees, a question arose whether Compassionate appointments
to the said category of Teacher ·can be considered or not. This issue has been
carefully examined and it has been decided by the Government that dependents of
the deceased Government employees shall not hereafter be considered for
appointment as Teacher, whose scale of pay is higher than that of Junior
Assistant and accordingly, order that Compassionate appointment under the said
scheme shall not be made against the category of Teacher.
3. Therefore, the following amendment is issued to G.O.Ms.No.612, General Administration (Ser.A) Department, dated 30.10.1991.
AMENDMENT
In the said G.O. in paragraph 2, for
sub-paragraph (iv), the following shall be substituted, namely: -
"(iv) If the dependents of the deceased
employees are eligible to be considered for any category of post whose pay is
equal or less than that of Junior Assistant (Lower Division Clerk) and if they
satisfy the qualifications and physical standards prescribed for such posts,
they can be considered for posts such as, Police Constables in Home department,
Excise Constables in Excise Department, Helper Grade-I and II in Forest
Department, Leading Fireman/ Fireman in Fire Service Department etc. In any
case, no dependent of the deceased Government employee possessing higher
qualifications prescribed for the posts of Assistant Engineers, Assistant
Executive Engineers, Civil Assistant Surgeons etc., shall be considered for
appointment to posts carrying higher scale of pay such as Assistant Engineers,
Assistant · Executive Engineers, Civil Assistant Surgeons etc."
