I appeared for the Bank PO exam last year and cleared it, even got through the interview. However, when the results were announced, I was placed on the waiting list. The bank said selections would be made if vacancies arise due to non-joining of candidates or other reasons. Now, Punjab National Bank has 130 unfilled positions out of the original 830. However, they’ve informed us that they don’t need POs anymore this year and have already recruited 750 candidates for next year’s intake. Considering the previous legal battles won by candidates against banks and IBPS, what are our options? We’re about 1,000 people whose careers are at stake. Please advise us on how to proceed.

Based on past legal precedents, you have grounds to legally challenge PNB’s decision. You can approach the court, highlighting the bank’s prior commitment to fill vacancies from the waiting list and the subsequent recruitment for next year’s intake despite unfilled positions. Consider approaching the court through a collective petition, as the number of affected candidates strengthens your case.

Hey, I received an email from our company’s HR saying they’ve extended our workday to 10 hours from the earlier 8 hours. We now have six working days with one second Saturday off.

I worked as a daily wage employee in the Thane Zilla Parishad from 1986 to 1995. I resigned due to low pay, but in 1998, an Industrial Court ruled that I should be considered a permanent employee from 1986 onwards. The Zilla Parishad appealed this decision in the High Court, but I didn’t appear. The High Court dismissed the petition, saying the Zilla Parishad should revive it if I sought the benefits. Now, I’m seeking the financial difference between my actual wages and what I would have earned as a permanent employee from 1986 until my resignation in 1995. The Zilla Parishad claims they can’t pay because I resigned before the court order. They also say there’s no need to revive the petition. Can I claim the salary difference and other benefits for my period of service? How should I proceed?

I submitted my resignation, completed my notice period, and filled out all exit paperwork. But, I forgot to tell my manager before leaving. Now, my CEO claims I “absconded” and don’t deserve my full salary. They’re offering half of what I’m owed. Is this legally correct, or can I still get my full payment? It’s been 8 months, and I’m worried about what to do.

Can I get legal advice on how to obtain a court order preventing my company from firing me while my case is pending?

I worked at a company for about a month, leaving due to personal reasons. I formally resigned through email to HR and my manager. After sending the email, I didn’t go back to the office. A month ago, I received an email demanding payment of around Rs. 50,000. Now, I received a formal notice from the company demanding payment within a few days or facing consequences. What should I do in this situation?
