Powergrid a Navaratna PSU of central government has framed some guidelines for allotment of quarters to workmen in which a clause is inserted "Normally bachelors will be alloted bachelor accomodation" on basis of this clause bachelor employees are exploited despite of having sufficient seniority they are alloted a room of 11ft by 11ft as bachelor accomodation whereas juniors having 05 years of less service are alloted two room set of plinth area 56 metre square. Please give remedy that Bachelors may also get a house on basis of seniority.

I was ignored for promotion due to a single "average" grade in my ACR which was uncommunicated. My appeal to CAT, Kolkata got defeated as the judge decided that since upgrading the grading from :average" to "good" would not suffice(benchmark was "very good"), so no upgrading would be done and rejected my appeal. However I've got documentary evidence of my excellent performance which was acknowledged indirectly by my organisation. Unfortunately these documents as well as supreme court judgements which would clinch my case, were not submitted by my lawyer in CAT inspite of my requests, probably due to overconfidence. I've consulted several highly reputed lawyers of Kolkata High Court but all of them are saying that no fresh document can be produced in High Court and my case does not have sufficient merit. Now my questions are:
1. Can I file a review petition in CAT submitting these documents which were not submitted earlier?
2. Will it be a rejoinder or a fresh case?
3. What is the possibility of such a review petition being considered by the judges without any prejudice( since they have already passed a judgement in my case once)?
4. Can I submit important judgements of Supreme Court and CAT as separate documents or simply refer and quote them in my application?
5. In case my second appeal to CAT also gets rejected, can I appeal to High Court with all the documents submitted in both the CAT cases ?

1 I retired from Powergrid corporation of India as General Manager on 30.04.2009
2 On day of my retirement, issued charge sheet for major penalty regarding violation of certain clauses of DOP while recommending a proposal for award. No loss to company quantified
3 Eight other executives who signed the same proposal also charge sheeted six months later with Disciplinary authority alleging violation of different and contradictory clauses in same case
4 CVC holds inquiry individually for all 9 executives and partially upholds charges
Me and all other officers protest and appeal against CVC judgement which had ignored many vital facts during the inquiry and similar cases prevailing in the company
5 After 4 years, leading to regular torture, mental harassment and agony and about 2 years of final inquiry report of CVC, company gives verdict of converting major penalty to Censure( minor penalty as per company work conduct and discipline rules and withheld gratuity released without payment of interest on delayed payment
6 I appeal against verdict request for exoneration and interest on delayed payment on gratuity which is released on 22.04.2013 whereas I had retired on 30.04.2009
No financial loss alleged or proved rather gain to the company can be proved and brought out during inquiry
In the expert legal opinion whether company should deny interest on delayed payment
Is the case not eligible for claiming damages for mental harassment humiliation and mental agony

Dear Sir,
I'm B. Manigandan from Chennai. I work in a BPO firm (transcription) as an Editor since September 2008. I am the best employee in our firm and I'm being used as a scaffold for the personal interests of my TL. I have just submitted my resignation to my GM and he has accepted it. I'm going not on my own accord, though. I was provoked by the mismanagement and misconduct of my TL and the verbal abuse (using filthy language) and threat received over phone. (Our owner is in London and the GM is overseeing(!) the operations here. He is just a puppet.)
I have been bringing my TL's misdeeds to the attention of my management for a very long time now (over 2 years) but they are not concerned about anything. Rather they only are concerned about getting the jobs done daily. Even in my letter I had mentioned that because of the trauma caused by my TL I'm leaving. Nothing was said for that. I have put 5 years now in this company and would like to be with the company as long as it exists but unfortunately I couldn't because of the treatment meted out to me by my TL. Everyone knows about it and they say time will come, Mani. But when I take up the matter every one backs up. None of his deeds are ethical and it does not favour all employees but favouring only those he likes.
My query is, can I claim compensation for 1) provoking me to resign, 2) not taking any action against erring TL despite bringing it to their attention and 3) for threat I received from my TL last month, for which no action has yet been taken and I had to leave for fear of my life. I'm leaving this company now with a 50% reduction in salary in the new company. (My pay here is Rs. 42,000 pm and I'm to join in the new company at Rs. 21,000 pm). I have a family. I can't be punished for being straightforward and for wishing that the management be in right hands.
I'm sure I will succeed if I were to take this matter up because of the facts I have against my TL. Furthermore, it's hearsay that he was chased out of his former employer (which is an MNC but is not in operation now in Chennai) because of the misconduct with a female employee there. He didn't change even after that. He does the same thing here. I have witnesses and evidence for all his misdeeds.
I attach a copy of my resignation letter. I would request that you go through it and please advise what to do. Hope to hear from you soon.
Thanking you,

Hi,
I am Revenue Accountant in Punjab State Power Corporation Ltd, a Public Sector enterprise( formerly Punjab State Electricity Board). I have joined my present service in Nov 2012... there was no bond clause in advertisement published by PSPCL. But at the thime of offer letter, they inserted a bond clause of 2 years. They infact retained our original certificates and deny to retuen back even a request made by me to them in May 2013. Now, I am selected as Section officer, Department of finance, Punjab Government. I have heard about DPE guidelines and transferablity of bond. But inspite of my requests, PSPCL officilas are in no mood of listening anything and demanding from me bond amount near about 2 lakhs which also includes induction training cost..
Now my question is :
1.What should I do now because my original certificates are with them and they are in no mood of relieving me without taking bond money?
2. If i pay now, whether any remedy available to me later on by demanding money paid under bond?
3. Training provided to us was very general in nature like giving service tax, income tax, contract act knowledge to CA Final/Inter student. So whether it comes under scientic training and technical training term meaning thereby value addition to employee??
4. Can a bond clause is valid if was not there in Advertisement but later on inserted in offer letter??
5. There was drafting mistake in offer letter. Offer letter itself mention about demanding back all salary paid to employee incase he leaves before 2 years and also mentions to execute bond for this which states maximum amount is of 3 months pay. How much they can demand???
