Govt jobs attestation form issue

Respected Lawyers, I have two questions regarding my attestation form. Please help me with the correct legal interpretation: 1) If the previous employment was under the Government of India / a State Government / an Undertaking owned by or controlled by the Government of India or a State Government / an autonomous body / University / local body.(state whether you had left service on giving a month's notice under Rule 5 of Central Civil Services (Temporary Service) Rules, 1965, or any Similar corresponding rules where any disciplinary proceedings framed against you, or had you been called upon to explain you conduct in any matter at the time you have been served with notice of termination of service, or at a subsequent date, before your services were actually terminated. My situation: I voluntarily resigned from a Central Government job after 3 months of service during training in paramilitary. There was no termination or disciplinary action. What should I write here legally? 2) Whether discharged/expelled/withdrawn from any training: Institution under the Govt. or otherwise? Yes/ No My situation: I resigned from my post while I was undergoing training at the training institute. What should I select here? Please help me, Thank you.

Is there any such provision for submission of resignation in any of the para- military organisation ? If so, let us also know it?

A hypothetical academic exercise.

Respected Sir,

With reference to the matter, I wish to state that during my training, I submitted my resignation after completing 3 months of service in training. My resignation was formally approved through the proper channel, and I received my relieving letter accordingly.

P. Venu (Advocate)     16 June 2026

If so, you can write "NO".


(Guest)

Sir, I don't understand the meaning of the second question. The word 'withdrawn' is used there; does it mean resignation here?"

P. Venu (Advocate)     17 June 2026

If you had resigned and it was accepted or duly accepted, it is not a case of withdrawal.


(Guest)

Thank you so much, sir, for helping me and guiding me legally in the right direction.

T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Advocate)     18 June 2026

Your relieving letter contents will be the relevant portion of the contents to be mentioned in this regard.

You peruse it and seek legal advice accordingly.

Respected sir, It is clearly mentioned in my relieving letter that I resigned from my position, and my resignation was accepted by the competent authority. There is absolutely no mention of words like withdrawn, expelled, discharged, or terminated anywhere in the document

Rule 5 of Central Civil Services (Temporary Service Rule) 1965 provide to termination of service of a temporary emloyee in civil service but not for the employee of Para-Miltary Service, which reads as:

5. Termination of temporary service.

(1) (a) The services of a temporary Government servant shall be liable to termination at any time by a notice in writing given either by the
Government servant to the appointing authority or by the appointing authority to the Government servant;

(b) the period of such notice shall be one month.

Provided that the services of any such Government servant may be terminated forthwith and on such termination, the Government servant shall be entitled to claim a sum equivalent to the amount of his pay plus allowances for the period of the notice at the same rates at which he was drawing them immediately before the termination of his services, or as the case may be, for the period by which such notice falls short of one month.

NOTE:- The following procedure shall be adopted by the appointing authority while serving notice on such Government servant under clause (a).

(i) The notice shall be delivered or tendered to the Government servant in person.

(ii) Where personal service is not practicable, the notice shall be served on such Government servant by registered post, acknowledgement due at the address of the Government servant available with the appointing authority.

(iii) If the notice sent by registered post is returned unserved it shall be published in the Official Gazette and upon such publication, it shall be deemed to have been personally served on such Government servant on the date it was published in the Official Gazette.

(2) (a) Where a notice is given by the appointing authority terminating the services of a temporary Government servant, or where the service
of any such Government servant is terminated on the expiry of the period of such notice or forthwith the Central Government or any other authority specified by the Central Government in this behalf or a head of Department, if the said authority is subordinate to him, may, of its own motion or otherwise, reopen the case and after making such inquiry as it deems fit-

(i) confirm the action taken by the appointing authority;

(ii) withdraw the notice;

(iii) reinstate the Government servant in service; or

(iv) make such other order in the case as it may consider proper.

Provided that except in special circumstances, which should be recorded in writing, no case shall be re-opened under this sub-rule after the expiry of three months-

(i) from the date of notice, in a case where notice is given;

(ii) from the date of termination of service, in a case where no notice is given.

(b) Where a Government servant is reinstated in service under sub-rule (2) the order of reinstatement shall specify –

(i) the amount or proportion of pay and allowances, if any, to be paid to the Government servant for the period of his absence between the date of termination of his services and the date of his reinstatement; and

(ii) whether the said period shall be treated as a period spent on duty for any specified purpose or purposes.

 

Accordingly, no such rule exist in either of the Para-Military force, however, if so, please enlighten us. The para-mlitary personnel has no right to resign from job during training period as stated by the author, which is misconception, false, and fabricated concept. 

Of course s/he (employee) may seek discharge and leave the force on depositing amount spent by the force on training, if accepted as per rules on the subject.

Respected Sir, thank you very much for the detailed explanation of the rules. I would like to point out that the subject of my relieving letter clearly reads, 'Relieving order on acceptance of resignation'. Please advise me on how I should proceed with the attestation form. Thank you."
