UP Government has passed a proposal that married daughter of a government official dying during his service will now be entitled to government jobs on compassionate grounds in Uttar Pradesh. The decision of the Personnel Department was approved by State Cabinet on November 10, 2021.
The UP cabinet has broadened the definition of “dependent daughters” to include the married daughters. Until now, the government has provided jobs to sons, married sons and unmarried daughters on compassionate grounds under the deceased dependent quota.
