I was a lecturer at a college for a few years. My appointment letter had a two-month notice period, and they kept my original certificates. Due to a serious medical emergency, I couldn’t fulfill the notice period. Now, the college management is demanding two months’ salary to release my certificates, even after I submitted a medical certificate. Is there any way I can get my certificates back without paying this amount under these circumstances? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You can approach the college management and request them to release your certificates without deducting the salary. If they refuse, you can approach the concerned authorities like the Labour Commissioner or file a case in the labor court, citing your medical emergency and the unfairness of withholding your certificates.

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.

Respected sir, I’ve been selected for the Assistant Manager position at BSFCSCL. The advertisement mentioned an MBA/PGDBM qualification, but I hold an MFM degree from BHU, earned in 2012. I understand the MFM nomenclature was changed to MBA (Financial Management) in 2015, as per a Gazette of India notification. Will my MFM degree be considered equivalent to MBA (Financial Management)? If BSFCSCL rejects my candidacy based on this, can I seek legal recourse? Your guidance would be greatly appreciated.
