Now, regarding ancestral/grandparents’ property:

Dear client,

Dear client,

If the High Court has observed that the department may consider giving your father VRS instead of exemption from transfer, that does not automatically mean he is compelled to retire. A voluntary retirement scheme (VRS) can never ordinarily be forced upon an employee when he is specifically seeking protection under disability laws.

Your father may still pursue relief on these grounds:

He is suffering from Ankylosing Spondylitis along with locomotor disability.
Protection is availa

Dear client,

If you have received a summons for a drunk driving case in Pune, the main issue is usually against the person who was actually driving the vehicle, not necessarily the registered owner of the car. So even if the car is in your brother’s name, liability for drunken driving primarily falls upon the driver at the time of the incident. Under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, drunk driving cases are generally filed based on the breath analyser report, medical examination, and police chall

Dear client,

Generally, if you had already performed duty for substantial hours and operated two flights before reporting sick for the last sector, deduction of the entire day’s salary may not automatically be justified. The legality depends on:

Your employment contract/service rules,
Airline HR policy,
DGCA-related duty regulations,
Whether the leave was treated as “sick leave,” “leave without pay,” or “unfit for duty.”

If you were medically unfit during duty and officially rep

Dear client,

If both your parents are serving as Group ‘C’ Government employees and belong to a recognised OBC category falling under 2A in Karnataka, then merely because the annual family income exceeds Rs 8 lakhs does not automatically exclude you from obtaining an OBC Non-Creamy Layer certificate. As per the principles governing creamy layer determination under the OBC reservation framework, the salary income of parents who are Government servants is not assessed solely on the basis of t

Dear client,

Under the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE) framework and the Stand Up India Scheme, loans covered under CGTMSE are generally intended to be collateral-free up to the permissible limit, subject to the terms of sanction and guarantee coverage. If the bank has initiated proceedings before the Debt Recovery Tribunal directly against your personal property without first proceeding against the secured/business assets or invoking the CGTMSE guarantee me

Dear client,

No, an employer cannot legally force you to resign merely because your project is ending while you are pregnant. Since you are in the 6th month of pregnancy, you are protected under the Maternity Benefit Act, 1961, and adverse action taken solely due to pregnancy may amount to unlawful discrimination and unfair labour practice.

A company may place an employee on “bench” depending upon business requirements and employment terms, but it cannot use a bench period as indirect pres

Dear Client,
Yes, you may still be eligible for OBC–Non Creamy Layer (NCL), but it will depend upon the exact status and nature of your father’s post as Chairman of the Bihar Bal Shramik Aayog and whether the post is treated as equivalent to a constitutional/statutory high-ranking government post falling within the “Creamy Layer” criteria.

Under the Central Government OBC Creamy Layer guidelines issued by the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT), children of persons holding const

Dear client,

If the property was the self-acquired/self-earned property of your father, then succession will primarily depend upon the terms of the Will executed by him. A self-earned property is different from ancestral/coparcenary property, and therefore grandsons do not acquire any birthright in such property during the lifetime of the owner.

In the present case, since your father executed a Will distributing the property equally among his six sons, each son would ordinarily become entitled
