3. The existing position has been reviewed and it has been decided by the competent authority that to achieve the objective of the scheme of compassionate appointment and to ensure complete transparency, merits of the cases can be conveniently decided by allocating points to the applicants based on various attributes indicated in the reference of DoP&T from time to time. Accordingly, the Board has worked out a system of allocation of points for various attributes based on a hundred point scale.
4. Keeping in view the administrative requirement in processing such applications for appointment on compassionate ground the following proforma has been made which are enclosed herewith.
