As an Egyptian working for an Indian company in Egypt, I’ve noticed a change in how they hire employees. Previously, they directly employed staff, but now they’re outsourcing the same roles with lower salaries. This seems unfair, especially since the outsourced employees are doing the same work. I’m concerned about this because Indian law states that if outsourced workers perform the same duties as direct employees, they should receive equal pay, benefits, and working conditions. Could an Egyptian citizen file a case against this Indian company in India regarding this violation? If so, what documentation would I need to prove the violation, and can I grant authorization to an Indian lawyer through the Egyptian embassy? How long would it take for the case to be initiated and a verdict reached? Lastly, what would the estimated legal costs be?

Under Indian law, an Egyptian citizen cannot directly file a case against an Indian company in India for discrimination related to outsourcing practices. You would need to seek legal advice from an Indian lawyer to explore potential options for redress within the Egyptian legal system.

My father-in-law, a government employee, received a subsidy to start a fish farm. He was suspended from his job for being absent during this time, but later rejoined claiming medical reasons. I have concerns about the following: 1. Is he eligible for additional income earned from the fish farm while he was absent without informing his employer? 2. He received subsidy cheques while on leave but presented a medical certificate to rejoin after suspension. 3. I believe the medical certificate is fraudulent as I have evidence from an RTI response showing he was actively running the fish farm. 4. He also didn’t pay electricity and water bills for his government accommodation from 2002 to 2016. 5. I informed his employer a week before his retirement, but no action was taken. 6. I am planning to file an RTI against both the fish farm agency and the bank that issued the subsidy without proper KYC checks. He was ineligible for both the subsidy and the loan.

This wasn’t mentioned in the bond or my appointment letter, even though the governing laws were listed without any clear explanations. What are my options now?

Next Article Back in 2007, I was a bank employee and faced a serious situation. A shortage of 4 lakhs was discovered in the cash I was responsible for. The bank suspended me and even filed a complaint against me at the police station under section 406. Both the bank and the police conducted separate investigations. Sadly, the police, known for their ways, pressured me for a bribe promising a favorable report. In 2008, the police finally submitted a charge-sheet against me in court, while the bank also completed their internal inquiry and reinstated me in February 2009. They did give me a two-increment cut as punishment. My question is, with the bank reinstating me after the police filed a charge-sheet, can the court still take action on it, or is the matter closed?
