I’m from Guwahati and have been working in a government job in Delhi for the past six years. My young children are back in Guwahati, and my transfer application was sadly rejected. Is there any way I can take a break from my job for a few years and return to the same position later? I’m looking for any options to help me spend time with my kids while keeping my government job.

Under Indian government rules, you can apply for leave without pay (LWP) for a certain period. However, the duration and approval of LWP depend on your specific service rules and the discretion of your employer. You should consult your department’s HR or personnel office for details and procedures on applying for LWP.

I worked at EXL Service Private Limited in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, from February 2016 to July 2016. I was terminated in August 2016, with the reason cited as “probation” in the termination letter. The Labor Department, after reviewing my documents, ruled this termination illegal as “probation” does not justify termination under Indian law. My joining letter and salary structure do not mention a probation period, implying my status as a regular employee. I also presented a previous joining letter from 2007, along with experience and relieving letters, which further supported my claim. The HR’s termination letter, however, contradicts this.
