2. Averments in the affidavit, in brief, are that the ancestral property of the petitioner was acquired for the construction of Sri Pothuluri Veera Brahmendra Swamy Reservoir of Telugu Ganga Project. The Land Acquisition Officer passed an award and the petitioner's family was displaced and relocated. The Government issued G.O.Ms.No.98 Irrigation (Proj.Wing) Department dated 15.04.1986 for rehabilitation and providing employment to the displaced person or their dependents. The then District Selection Committee scrutinized the particulars of the petitioner's father and incorporated his name in the list dated 24.10.2016 at Sl.No.69. The petitioner's father died on 19.04.2018 in a road accident. Thereafter the p
Welfare legislation must be liberally construed to include grandsons as eligible candidates for employment benefits, ensuring the intended beneficiaries are not excluded.
The State's policy providing jobs to displaced persons supersedes application deadlines, ensuring claims are honored despite timelines, supporting social justice.
Government policies for employment of displaced persons must be enforced without imposing unjust limitations, ensuring the protection of their rights and entitlements.
The court affirmed that displaced persons are entitled to employment under government schemes, emphasizing the principle of parity in employment opportunities for similarly situated individuals.
Displaced persons are entitled to employment under G.O.Ms.No.98 provisions; all affected parties must be included for fair process in judicial decisions.
Displaced persons are entitled to job applications beyond prescribed deadlines due to government policies and prior judicial rulings that relax such limitations.
