The Supreme Court of India has agreed to examine whether the son of a married daughter can qualify for compassionate employment under government schemes. This decision comes shortly after the court affirmed that a married daughter is eligible for such benefits following the death of a parent in service. Ankit Pandey has petitioned against the Chhattisgarh government's refusal to provide him employment under a rehabilitation scheme for project-affected families. Currently, the state's policy defines eligible family members as including spouses, children, dependent parents, and unmarried daughters, but excludes married daughters and their children. Pandey's claim is supported by his grandparents, who are beneficiaries of the state's compassionate rehabilitation policy. His advocate argued that the government had previously granted employment to another individual in a similar situation, indicating inconsistency in policy application. The Supreme Court has issued a notice to the Chhattisgarh government, requiring a response within four weeks.
