Compassionate Appointment | Rejection Without Reasoned Order or Hearing Violates Natural Justice : Allahabad HC
The Allahabad High Court has quashed the rejection of a compassionate appointment claim where the government merely marked the application as 'Rejected' on the Manav Sampada portal without any speaking order or opportunity to be heard. This ruling establishes that administrative silence in welfare-based appointments is a violation of Article 14 and natural justice, compelling authorities to provide transparent, reasoned decisions to dependents of deceased government servants.
