My doctor has diagnosed me with Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease. I’m wondering about the leave options available for someone in my situation. Also, with 14 years of service already, should I consider voluntary discharge, given the way my unit has been treating my condition? It’s causing me a lot of distress.

Under Indian law, you are entitled to medical leave for your condition. The duration and specific provisions depend on your employer’s policies. If your workplace is not accommodating your health needs and causing distress, voluntary discharge is an option to consider, but it’s advisable to consult with a legal professional to understand the implications for your service benefits and future employment.
