Dear memers,
KIndly enlighten me on the following:
A government servant served for 30 years in a state college. In year 2005 he was implicated in a murder case that happened in his native village while he was away in the place of his employment. He was suspended and was convicetd by the trial court u/s 120 B, IPC. He was let out on bail upon appeal by the High Court which is still pending. Meanwhile he retired on subsistence pension. There was never any departmental enquiry set up nor any charge sheet given neither any explanation called. His representationa were repeatedly refused.
Now, my question is that whether such a person can get his gratuity or not? Grtauity is withheld bythe government. Can he claim gratuity atleast for the period he served prior to his implication in a criminal case.
KIndly help me outon this.
Regards,
Shashaank.
