Under the said provision, a female dependent of an employee is entitled for monetary compensation, if she is not found eligible for appointment on compassionate ground, till she attains the age of 60 years. The petitioner had asserted that she had attained the age of 51 years. There was no statutory rule framed by the respondent providing limitation for submission of application for monetary compensation. The Court thus held that the claim of the petitioner had been illegally declined and that the respondents had committed gross negligence on not carrying out the obligations under the Agreement.
