Regarding policy rule framed by indian railways

Dear Sir / Madam,

I am working as a Railway employee and suffering huge loss since 2016 due to the wrong policy made by Indian Railways in 2012 during the implementation of 6th Pay Commission.

I have filed a case in CAT/Cuttack (Odisha) but unfortunately due to improper handling of the case by my Advocate itself the Hon'ble CAT bench dismissed the same without giving me any relief.

I am looking for an Advocate having good knowledge in Service matters and who can handle the case to get me justice and compensation in this matter.

If I can file a case against this Policy Rule to get justice or compensation, please suggest me where to file the case.

Please suggest in this matter. Looking for supportive reply.

Govt job eligibility after lok adalat settlement

Respected Experts,

I am preparing for public sector and government recruitment examinations (including SBI/IBPS).

Case Background:

An FIR was registered under IPC Section 341, Section 294, Section 323, Section 506, and Section 34.

The police filed a final charge-sheet under IPC Section 294, Section 352, Section 506, and Section 34.

The entire matter was mutually compounded and disposed of via an uncontested Lok Adalat settlement. There is no pending trial, fine, or conviction against me.

My Queries:

Will this past closed case affect my final appointment or police verification for SBI/government jobs?

What is the standard legal procedure for disclosing a Lok Adalat acquittal during character attestation to ensure zero issues with my candidature?

Kindly advise.

Classification of various offences

Have the offences contained in the Indian Penal Code (IPC) been classified into petty, serious, and grave offences, particularly for service jurisprudence and disciplinary proceedings? If so, are there any judicial decisions that have undertaken or recognised such a classification?

For the purposes of this query, the classification of offences under the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015, including the categorisation discussed in Shilpa Mittal v. State (NCT of Delhi), is not relevant and should be excluded from consideration.

Pay protection on joining a psu from central government

I have joined a PSU in 2010 from a central government department, i have applied through proper channel and submitted an NOC and technical resignation as well. However, after my joining in a PSU the HR refused to protect my last pay in the central government. From 2010 to 2018 i keep on writing various letters to the authorities but to no avail, finally for the very first time in 2018 HR communicated that pay protection will not be given.

Kindly enlighten me on this with orders/circulars please

Appointment of job during pending criminal case

I have been selected for a Civil Engineering post under the Government of West Bengal and am currently awaiting appointment, subject to completion of Police Verification (PVR).
In 2021, my sister filed an IPC 306 case against me, my mother, and her former husband following a family dispute after my father's death. The case remained pending before the trial court for several years without significant progress.
Subsequently, all parties reached a mutual settlement and jointly approached the High Court seeking quashing of the criminal proceedings. A joint compromise petition has already been filed. However, due to procedural delays, including delay in production of the Case Diary by the State and other court-related reasons, the quashing petition is still pending.
I honestly disclosed the pending case in my PVR form and did not suppress any information. My PVR report is expected to reach the department shortly and will likely mention the case as pending. I made every possible effort to have the matter resolved before completion of the PVR process, but the delay was beyond my control.
I seek legal advice on whether this pending IPC 306 case, despite the compromise and pending quashing proceedings, may affect my government appointment and what legal remedies are available to protect my candidature and secure joining.

Gratuity jurisdiction contractual employee of central psu

Facts of the Case:
I am seeking legal guidance on behalf of an employee who has been working on a contractual basis under a Public Sector Undertaking (PSU), which is a Government of India entity registered and headquartered in Andhra Pradesh. The employee has been engaged through a series of 179-day contracts, which have been continuously renewed by the PSU. However, before every renewal, the PSU deliberately gives a one-day break, after which a fresh contract is issued. The employee has worked uninterruptedly from 16th August 2021 and the last date of the current contract is 14th May 2026, making the total period of service approximately 4 years and 9 months. Although the PSU is based in Andhra Pradesh, the employee has been physically working at a Government of India Ministry office located in New Delhi throughout the entire period of service. Despite the employee working in Delhi, the PSU deducts Rs. 200 per month as Andhra Pradesh State Professional Tax from the employee's salary.
Query 1 — Jurisdiction for Gratuity Case (Delhi or Andhra Pradesh?):
Since the PSU is registered in Andhra Pradesh but the employee has been physically working in a Central Government Ministry in New Delhi for the entire duration of service, I would like to know which authority will have jurisdiction to hear a gratuity claim — whether it will be the labour authority in Delhi or in Andhra Pradesh. Additionally, since the employer is a Central PSU under the Government of India, will the Central Government labour machinery apply, such as the Regional Labour Commissioner (Central), Delhi, or will it be a state authority?
Query 2 — Whether a Gratuity Case is Maintainable:
The total period of service from 16.08.2021 to 14.05.2026 comes to approximately 4 years and 9 months, which is numerically less than the 5-year minimum required under Section 4 of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. However, the one-day break given before every contract renewal has been deliberately engineered by the PSU to prevent the employee from accumulating continuous service and claiming statutory benefits. The employee has worked for more than 240 days in each year of service. In light of the above, I would like to know whether GRATUITY CASE is maintainable.

Fixation of pay under fr 49(iii) - reg.

Respected Learned Experts. I am a central government retired employee. While I was in service, I had been assiged with the duties and role of an higher officer (my next promotional cadre) from 11.04.2014 to 25.01.2017. After my retirement, I had asked for the pay benefit under FR 49(iii) for discharging the duties of the higher post. My request has been turned down by the Competent Authority in the year 2023 stating the provision of FR 49(v). I had immediately filed OA before the CAT. During the argument, the Bench has raised query on the delay of 6 years in filing the OA, It has further raised an objection that the role/duties of the higher post is only assigned and you have not been appointed on current charges to that post. The Respondent department has not raised the query of delay in its reply version. Similarly, it is the fault of the Respondent who had directed to discharge the work of the higher post without any formal appointment order to the higher post. In the above circumstances, I request all the Learned Experts kindly to suggest how to anwer the query raised by the Bench. Whether duty assigned to discharge the higher post in the absence of formal appointment order to that post is an offence committed by me. It is the directions issued by the Head Office to all the Branch Head to assign the work of the higher post who are holding next below lower post. Please guide me with your expertise know;edge as I am appearing as Party In Person before the Tribunal. My sincere thanks to one and all in the Expert Forum for your continued tireless guidance extended to me in all these days. Once again thanks in anticipation.
