Husband’s Appointment On Compassionate Ground Won’t Take Away His Fundamental Right Of Remarriage: Allahabad High Court

The Allahabad High Court ruled that the petitioner (Husband) employed on compassionate basis on the death of his wife, won’t be precluded from re-marrying. The Bench of Justice Pankaj Mithal ruled, “Merely because petitioner has been appointed on compassionate basis, he cannot be forced to sacrifice his/her fundamental right of remarriage, after the death of the earlier spouse.”
