Malleswaram bomb blast victim approaches court over delay in govt job
- Lisha had suffered severe leg injuries in the blast
- High Court had directed the state to provide her government job
Lisha had suffered severe injuries to her leg during the bomb blast in April, 2013.
Â
The victim had approached the high court recently complaining that despite the court's direction (in 2016, October), the state government was delaying in providing her the government job.
Â
Responding to the court, the state government submitted that it is in the process of working out the measures to hand over the job to Lisha, as promised.
Â
It further submitted that the state government has provided Rs 10,17,078 to Lisha from the chief minister's Relief fund and Rs 3 lakh from the Central government's relief fund.
Â
The state government further submitted that since Lisha has been provided relief from the Central government, there are no provisions to award government job to Lisha.
Â
The state government further told the court that the issue will be discussed in the cabinet and expedite the process to help Lisha get government job, soon.
