Rajasthan State Road Transport ... vs Danish Khan .

The Supreme Court upheld the Rajasthan High Court's ruling that Regulation 4(3) of the Rajasthan State Road Transport Corporation Compassionate Appointment Regulations, 2010 is unconstitutional as it violates Article 14 of the Constitution of India. The Court found that the regulation discriminates against families of employees who die in accidents involving the Corporation's vehicles, as it prevents them from seeking compassionate appointments while allowing such appointments for deaths occurring in non-Corporation vehicles. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision to declare the regulation void and emphasized the need for compassionate appointments to alleviate family distress.
