Promotion in sealed cover

Kind attention is drawn to Rule 3.1 as shown hereunder of Office Memorandum No.22011/4 /91-Estt.(A) of 14th Sept., 1992 of Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, Department of Personnel & Training-
“3.1 If any penalty is imposed on the Government servant as a result of the disciplinary proceedings or if he is found guilty in the criminal prosecution against him, the findings of the sealed cover/covers shall not be acted upon. His case for promotion may be considered by the next DPC in the normal course and having regard to the penalty imposed on him.”
I was awarded a penalty of Censure. However in compliance to Para 3.1 of above Office Memorandum the sealed cover was not opened despite the fact that there are so many instances where an employee having awarded penalty of Censure prior to DPC have been promoted.
The rule is not only discriminatory but also contradictory which can be proved by the following example.
Two employees who were under the zone of consideration for promotion on 01.01.14 were served with chargesheets on 20.12.13 to reply in defence within 15(Fifteen) days. One of the employee submitted his replies on 25.12.13 & the Disciplinary authority awarded him a penalty of Censure before 01.01.14. DPC considered him to be promoted to next higher grade since Censure does not have any currency period. The other employee submits his reply on 02.01.14 & was also censured by the Disciplinary authority. However his candidature which will be in sealed cover will not be acted upon. Will there will not be injustice in later case?
Will the former will enjoy Promotion benefit whereas the candidature of the later will continue to remain in sealed cover?
The example cited above clearly proves that the rule itself is discriminatory and violates article 20 of the constitution of India since a double penalty i.e. (i) Minor penalty of censure and (ii) withholding of promotion is imposed to one of the candidate and also violates article 14 and 16 of the constitution of India since quantum of punishment is different for same type of penalty.
May kindly apprise that I have to proceed court of law for justice.

Which is the proper forum to challenge the appointment of enquiry officer and arbitrary procedure adopted by him?
High Court, Labor Court or Civil Court?
The enquiry is initiated against an officer of a private limited company and NOT against any labor.

Need your help

I am working Sales Head for an MNC company and have built & establish all process /policy/ infra / manpower and product launch of new category from Dec 2013 but I was the person who designed the road map of this company except for technical part I joined as Sales Head in March 2013 which I did successfully.

Product launch took place in Dec 2013 everything went well but being new category the sales did not happened as expected but as per our strategy we were heading towards the right path which no doubt will take its own time as "Rome was not build in day.'' Although company has only one product to sale right now & there is no brand extension or product addition being sighted in companies portfolio basket might take another 6 months to roll out and by the time without good volumes thru one product will create frustration and the attrition.

My new VP joined on 20th May everything was cool till 4th July when we were discussing some marketing plan he could not answer my query and abruptly started shouting in front of office staff and arbitrarily without notice he scrapped my position and violated all my rights by making dummy position in one hour and issued mail without HR consent that I will handle WUP project (alone) while all people reporting to me will be now taken care by him also all my responsibility by him and his coordinator.

I and my team is facing intimidating, harassing & humiliating mails from him as he started sending all mails down to my subordinates stating I have no right to manage team and i have to just obey his orders which has spoiled my earned image of 20 yrs in trade moreover all the issues pertaining to this VP has been shared with HR though HR convinces me that company trust you so have faith but for time being you just behave like a sheep and not like sales head which also does not satisfy my as convincing answer.

Now I am still facing unbearable humiliation from him where things have gone out of hand as he is creating hurdles in project and have asked HR to scrap my post and decide on my future. I have spoken to him that platform which he is standing is my individual planned and established infra how you can say that I have not contributed to company and what back ground he is has scrapped my position....which I was never discussed and neither ever mailed as concern if any. I have not resigned but yesterday Meeting Invitation to all was sent except me....whilst Richard is telling staff I have quit when I have not received any show cause or any communication from office ...so I immediately filed a NOTICE on 23rd July through a lawyer asking for explanation but very next day of receiving the legal notice company issued me the termination letter on 30th July 2014 .

Now, I want to be reinstated, compensated for wrongful termination and character defamation.Can I sue this VP for character defamation in IPC & Civil in slandery & libel category.

Would be looking for your urgent response and guidence what to do.

Notice period applicability

Respected All,

I had joined one ITES organization. However I left the organization within 2 months without serving complete notice period. I had neither accepted any appointment letter nor had I signed any bond with the organization.
Can you please assist me whether I am liable for the notice period? Now I have received a legal notice in which they are asking me to pay the Notice Period Amount.
On this can I go to the labor court or will I have to settle the notice period amount?
