JUDGMENT :

B.N. MAHAPATRA, J.

1. This writ petition has been filed for a direction to opposite party No.2 Secretary, Berhampur Central Co-operative Bank Limited, Berhampur to appoint the petitioner under the Rehabilitation Assistance Scheme on account of death of his father and for a further direction to opposite party No.1 Registrar, Co-operative Societies, Orissa, Bhubaneswar to accord approval in respect of the said appointment.

2. Petitioner's case in a nutshell is that the father of the petitioner late Gouranga Palei died in harness due to heart attack on 03.07.2010. At the time of his death, petitioner's father was serving under opposite party No.2 as a regular employee. After death of his father, the petitioner made representation under Annexure-3 series to opposite party Nos. 1 and 2 for his appointment under the Rehabilitation Assistance Scheme. Vide Letter No. 5676/12-13 dated 17.01.2013 (Arinexure-4) though opposite party No.2 Secretary has required approval of opposite party No.1 for appointment of the petitioner along with others under the Rehabilitation Assistance Scheme, no action has yet been taken by opposite party No.1. Hence, the present writ petition.
