The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Central Administrative Tribunal which directed the Delhi Jal Board to consider the candidature of Nirmala Devi's daughter for the post of Lower Division Clerk. The court found that the respondent's application for compassionate appointment was valid and that her daughter was eligible for the position. The appeal by the Delhi Jal Board was dismissed, affirming the lower court's ruling.
