I’m a government employee on medical leave for the past 146 days, with another 152 days of earned leave available. Despite sending regular medical certificates from government hospitals and surgeons, my salary hasn’t been paid for the last three months. My department is threatening termination, saying I’m not joining duty. What legal recourse do I have in this situation?
Best Answer
Under the Indian law, you have the right to medical leave with pay as long as you provide valid medical certificates. Your department’s threat of termination without proper procedures is illegal. You can approach the appropriate authorities within your department or the government to address the salary issue and the termination threat, and seek legal counsel if needed.
