    Case Summary: WPA 23311/2023 – Kalpana Maji v. State of West Bengal The High Court at Calcutta allowed the widow's application for compassionate appointment as a Fair Price Shop dealer, holding that mere pendency of the deceased licensee's writ petition challenging license termination cannot bar consideration of her claim. The court ruled that disciplinary proceedings abate upon death, leaving allegations untested, and that compassionate appointment rights are independent and survive for legal heirs despite unadjudicated misconduct allegations. The respondent authority was directed to reconsider her application within eight weeks based on applicable policy criteria alone.

casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: WPA 23311/2023 – Kalpana Maji v. State of West Bengal The High Court at Calcutta allowed the widow's application for compassionate appointment as a Fair Price Shop dealer, holding that mere pendency of the deceased licensee's writ petition challenging license termination cannot bar consideration of her claim. The court ruled that disciplinary proceedings abate upon death, leaving allegations untested, and that compassionate appointment rights are independent and survive for legal heirs despite unadjudicated misconduct allegations. The respondent authority was directed to reconsider her application within eight weeks based on applicable policy criteria alone.
