Lucknow: Married girls from government officials, who died during their service period, will also be eligible to get government work under the deceased dependent quota.
In significant developments, the Country Cabinet led by CM Yogi Adityanath has marked a proposal to include “married daughters” in the category of government officials who have died to be given government jobs on the reason for compassion.
This step has the potential to lend new traction to the BJP Vis-A-Vis campaign for women’s empowerment ahead of the poll will be early next year.
The Country Cabinet cleared the proposal for this effect through circulation of Wednesday night.
Until now, only a wife, a married manner / unmarried and unmarried girls were attached to the dependents of the dead government officials.
The cabinet expanded the definition of “Daughter of Dependent” to enter married too, officials said.
A senior official, however, said that married daughters would bring down orders after the deceased’s wife, a died / unmarried son and unmarried daughter.
“He can also get a job if other family members refuse to take government work,” an official said.
The proposal was transferred as an amendment to the 12th in government employees who had died 2021.
Earlier this year, the High Court of Allahabad has stated that not including married girls from the definition of “family” in the rules for “unconstitutional” appointment and violate article 14 and 15 constitutions.
While hearing the petition in January, the High Court stated that a married daughter was “no less qualified” for government work for loving reasons than her brother or unmarried sister.
The court heard the petition by one Manjul Srivastava, who had challenged the Order of June 2020 from the Basic Basic Officer of Prasagraj, rejected his claim to the appointment of the reasons for compassion after his father’s death to the state government.
The State Cabinet also approved the ‘Matrbhoomi Scheme’ that allows people, who have settled in big / foreign cities to contribute to the development of their home village.
If someone is willing to bear the cost of 60%, the government will contribute to the remaining 40%.
