Sure, here’s a **short and clear reply**:
Hi Ramakrishna, only **one family member** can get a compassionate job after a government employee’s death. If your **sister was appointed without your consent** or due procedure, and you were **not aware or not given a chance**, you can **challenge it**.
✅ File an **RTI** to get appointment details.
✅ Send a **representation** to the department objecting to her appointment.
✅ If no action, you can **file a writ petition** in the High Court.
However, since it's been **a long time (2018)**, you must explain the **delay** and prove any **fraud or procedural error**.
Let me know if you need help drafting a representation.
As your Sister is widow as described she would be given preference if she is otherwise eligible in all respects for that particular job as financial distress is considered for such posts and if you are well placed your sister is rightly appointed. If there are other grounds to challenge such compassionate appointment you can do it but appointment on compassionate basis is not a Right but just a remedial measures to assist Family or members of the ex employee.
Dear client,
Your father died in 2018 while working as VRA. After that your sister got job under compassionate grounds. Now you want to claim that job. But in government rules , only one family member can get job after father's death. Since your sister already got it, no second person can claim again.
But if her job was given without your consent, or she hid facts, or rules were not followed, then you can file case in High Court and challenge her appointment. But court will ask why you waited so long (from 2018). So you need to show reason for delay.
You should collect all documents and better meet one service law advocate. He will check and guide if case is strong or weak. Only if rules were broken, you may have a chance.
