Post his death during the period of service, the petitioner applied for compassionate appointment on the ground that she was deserted by her husband and since then was living under the care and control of her father. The respondents denied the petitioner\u2019s appointment on the ground that she was not a divorcee at the time of her father\u2019s death. The Government Pleader for the respondents R. Govindasamy contended that marriage renders a daughter ineligible for compassionate appointment which otherwise can be granted only when a daughter is unmarried or is a divorcee at the time of application for compassionate appointment. The petitioner was represented by S.Parthasarathy.<o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p   >On perusing the facts and arguments presented for the case D. Hariparanthaman, J. observed that when a married son is not disqualified for compassionate appointment then there should be no discrimination in case of a married daughter. The Court further observed that when the petitioner has come with a plea that she was deserted by her husband and a decree of divorce was granted and she was under the care and control of her father at the time of his death, the Government cannot deny compassionate appointment on the ground that divorce was obtained after the death of her father. Rejecting the impugned Government Order the Court directed the respondents to provide compassionate appointment to the petitioner.&nbsp;<span><\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/LoginForNewsLink.aspx?q=2014_SCC_OnLine_Mad_7794&amp;db=0 \"><i>P.R.
