Case Summary: W.P.(C) No. 299/2012 — Kamaruddin Laskar v. Chairman & M.D., PGC of India Ltd. Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed the writ petition on 29/08/2012. Kamaruddin Laskar sought a mandamus for compassionate appointment and sought to quash Rule 0.5.4 of the 1995 Memorandum of Agreement. The Court rejected both prayers, holding that: (1) Power Grid Corporation India Limited was not impleaded as a party, making appointment directions impossible; (2) dependents have no right to compassionate appointment—such appointments depend on employer policy, and limiting eligibility to those dying in service accidents does not violate Article 14; and (3) the family had already received Rs. 4,62,642 under Social Security and monthly pension of Rs. 2,291.
