SYED KHADIM HUSSAIN vs STATE OF BIHAR . — C.A. No. 199/2005

Summary of C.A. No. 000199/2005 (Syed Khadim Hussain v. State of Bihar) The Supreme Court allowed Syed Khadim Hussain's appeal for compassionate appointment after his father (a PWD peon) died in 1991. The Court found that while his mother's timely application was wrongly rejected without proper reasons, the appellant should be considered for appointment in her place. The Court directed Bihar authorities to grant him appropriate government service employment within three months, noting that strict age-bar rules should not apply given the State's procedural failure and the 11-year delay.
