Termination of govt employee under suspension regarding

I am a permanent employee of central public sector company. The company follows govt of India rules.
I was granted Ccl for 3 months with permission to leave the country. I had travelled abroad. Post exhaustion of my sanctioned leaves, I had applied for extension of leave. On receipt of non- approval for extension of my leave, (communicated to me after almost 4 months), I was prepared to return to India.
As I was planning to depart, I twisted my knee and suffered severe leg pain and Muscle Tear rendering me unable to take a long duration flight. On being advised to take rest and avoid all journeys by the local physician, I found myself in circumstances beyond my control and had no choice but to stay back. I did apply for medical leave alongwith medical certificate from doctor. I did not receive any response from office.

Despite being on leave without pay, in order to do justice to my position, I have been in constant touch with the Office and have been attending to work through internet and following all the instructions and directions given to me from time to time. I tried to provide all support to the best of my ability to minimize the impact of physical absence from work.

After two months, I received a memo requiring me to submit explaination as to why disciplinary proceedings should not be initiated against me for unauthorized absence from work. I did submit my justification and also further requested them to grant me extra ordinary leave after debuting earned / medical leaves.

No communication / response has been received by me till date regarding the same also.

Unfortunately, since my recovery was not as expected, I had again applied for further leave on medical grounds( along with medical certificate from doctor) as my doctor
Had suggested me to further take rest and refused to give Fitness certificate. I had again requested that extra ordinary leave may be granted .

No response on this also has been received by me.

After 2 months , I have received a Suspension order as disciplinary proceedings/ actions are contemplated for unauthorized absence from work.

In this context, I have a few queries:

1. Is this suspension justified / legal? What should I do - appeal for revocation?
2. Can I be terminated under suspension? (I know they assume that I don�t intend to return and are upset about it) If yes, how and on what grounds? What should I do to avoid it ?
3. What should be my course of action -given the fact I can�t travel back right now ?
4. Can I simply join office when my doctor provides me with Fitment Certificate ?

Pf-employer / employee contribution

We are in the process of registering our company.

I would like to know, if the salary is 25K per month (for example) what should be the Employer's contribution and what should be the employee's contribution?

If the employee so wishes, can he/she fix his/her contribution at 1800 per month? And can the employer just match that amount?

Employer is denying of releiving letter as i am resigning in

Hi,
I am in probation period and wants to resign from my post as i am not feeling comfortable in company and environment as they have assigned me to very bad support project. As per my offer letter, notice period in my probation period is of 1 month. I am ready to serve 1 month notice period. But my project manager is saying that he has spent huge amount on my background verification. He won't be issuing relieving letter if i will be serving 1 month notice period only. He is threatening me to serve 3 month notice period (after probation period notice period in my company is of 3 month ) otherwise he will do following things:
a) won't issue relieving letter
b) won't issue experience letter
c) give very negative remarks in my further background verification
d) will ensure that i won't get job in any other company by blacklisting me
He is also threatening me that he can change my offer letter terms and conditions increasing notice period in probation period from one month to 3 month as there is below line in my offer letter
"Company reviews its compensation structure and policies from time to time. The compensation structure and benefits offered to you in this offer letter are subject to change and the same will be communicated to you at the time of joining date or at a later date when such change becomes applicable"
Please help me out. I really want to get out from here properly within one month only.
