G.O., the Departments of Secretariat/Heads of Departments / District Collectors etc.,
have been requested to adhere to the existing instructions and guidelines
issued from time to time on the scheme while considering Compassionate
Appointments to the dependents of the deceased Government employees strictly
without any deviation. It was also directed not to entertain the requests for
