I worked as a contractual employee with the National Health Mission in Odisha. On March 31st, 2015, my colleagues were transferred to the Odisha Medical Corporation. However, on the same day, I and two others received a false show-cause notice for alleged misconduct towards seniors. Though I responded promptly, no action was taken for months. Then, on November 30th, 2015, I was informed that my position was redundant as the Odisha Medical Corporation didn’t require additional staff. This was despite being the most qualified and experienced individual among those working there.

Based on your description, it appears you were potentially terminated without proper notice or justification. You may have grounds to contest your termination in court, arguing unfair labor practices and potential discrimination. Consulting a lawyer specializing in employment law in Odisha is recommended to assess your legal options and potential for seeking redress.

I recently interviewed for a contract IT position through a staffing agency, and the client company seemed happy with me. However, the manager insisted I join through a specific contract company, hinting at a possible commission. He promised a long-term contract and warned about giving negative feedback to the agency if I didn’t comply. I reluctantly agreed. Now, after nine months, he’s abruptly terminated my contract without explanation. Any legal advice on what I can do?

Is it possible for a public sector bank in India to issue a voluntary resignation letter after an employee has withdrawn their resignation, confirmed via email, before the deadline?

As a lecturer in Computer Applications at a polytechnic college in Madhya Pradesh, I was appointed in 2008 under the 2004 recruitment rules. My salary was fixed at ₹15,600 – ₹39,100 with an Academic Grade Pay (AGP) of ₹6,000 during the sixth pay revision. Recently, my principal issued an order reducing my AGP to ₹5,400, citing a clarification from the AICTE’s January 2016 Gazette (referring to their 2010 guidelines). This change supposedly applies to science and humanities subjects, but my branch, Computer Applications, is a technical degree. There’s no other postgraduate degree available in Computer Applications.

I joined a private coaching institute in India as a teacher with a two-year contract. To secure the job, I gave them two undated cheques, one for each year of the contract. I left after eighteen months without prior notice. They deposited the second cheque, but I had stopped payment. They then sent me a notice and filed a case against me. They didn’t provide any training, and I didn’t take any loan from them. I needed the job, and they wouldn’t offer it without the undated cheques. After I left, they rearranged my classes and covered the course with another teacher. They didn’t suffer any financial loss due to my departure. In fact, they even had more students and their business grew the following year. Can I win this case? How can I present my case effectively in court?

Do I need to withdraw my case before I can be considered for either promotion?

Previous Article We renewed our contract with a driver’s syndicate in Bangalore on September 21st, 2016, for three months after paying them a deposit of ₹30,000. We have a copy of the agreement. The driver stopped working, claiming the company hadn’t paid him his dues. We told the driver’s agency we no longer wanted his services and asked for our deposit back, along with the driver’s unpaid wages. Now, the driver is harassing us and threatening legal action. He received partial payment from the agency and still demands his salary from us, despite our full payment to the company. The company isn’t responding properly. They say we should pay the driver because we broke the contract, but refuse to return our deposit.
