Technical Resignation
2 years ago
I am currently working in a autonomous institute under GOI. After completion of probation, I had applied to a post in another autonomous government institute by obtaining NOC. Now I have been selected for the post and received offer letter to join within 15 days. I submitted my technical resignation and requested for lien from my current organisation. Meantime, I requested for 3 month extension to joining citing notice period at the current organisation. But unfortunately, I got only one month extension for joining.
I was communicated through mail that my request for lien is not considered by competent authority and need to serve notice period of 3 months. How do I go ahead.

So new institute have to wait 3 months.
If your prior employer's employment contract stipulates a three-month notice period, you must provide three months' notice. The only way out is to ask your superiors to shorten the notice period. Check to see whether you have any vacation time left, as this may shorten your notice period also you can avoid the notice period if there are claims like bad working conditions or unfair treatment etc.

For lien period approach High Court or Tribunal.

If your employment contract in your previous organisation says that notice period has to be 3 months then you have to give 3 months notice period. Only way out is requesting your seniors to reduce the notice period. Also check if you have some holidays left which could reduce your notice period.
