I am a central government officer. Got minor penalty in 2014(one increment down for 3years). Again in 2017 got another minor penalty (one increment down for 3 years). Due to these minor penalties I di


A. Hello Sir,
The fact of the imposition of the minor penalty of censure on a Government servant does not by itself stand against the consideration of such person for promotion, as his fitness for the promotion has to be judged, in the case of promotion by seniority, on the basis of an overall assessment of his service record, and in the case of promotion by selection on merit, on the basis of his merit categorisation which is again based upon an overall assessment of his service record.

Hi, I'm working with a company which has joined me with 6 months probation and 1 month notice period, my health gets degree after 2 months and then my HR call and ask to resign but when I resign over


A. Dear Client,
As you are in probation period and company is having its internal policy in this regard and which is applicable to the employees, who are in probation period, then you have to serve the notice period. And secondly No Employer can force an Employee to complete the Notice period, it is for the employee to complete the Notice period in order to take his full salary and the relieving letter. You can tell them about your problem for not serving the notice period.
Hope, it is helpful
