Lt Satbir Singh, son of Man Singh of village Thua, tehsil Alewa in district Jind in Haryana, was killed in a terrorist attack in Manipur on March 18, 2009.
As Satbir was unmarried, his father had requested that his younger son Sandeep be given a job on compassionate grounds. Sandeep's qualification is B.A, B.Ed. And JBT.
The decision to give a government job to Sandeep was taken in a cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar here today, a release said.
Though giving job to younger son of Man Singh does not come under this policy, yet this being an exceptional case, the Cabinet gave relaxation in rules to provide employment to the younger brother of the martyr, the release said.
