I am an employee of DPS RK Puram(School Id : 1719111) and my date of Joining in DPS RKP is 10th March 2005. I had been granted promotion in February 2015 along with 27 other admin staffs, as the same was reflected in my February 2015 salary slip. But promotion of 6 admin staff (including mine) was revoked and money recovered in the very next month i.e March 2015 without informing me of the reasons or the grounds for the revocation. I made so many representations to all concerned to know the criteria adopted, but all in vain. I happen to be the most educated out of all the 27 admin staff. My employer states that it was an inadvertent mistake. Kindly advise how can I fight against it? .

There is a proliferation of fraudsters online promising to give personal loans. They then ask for a processing fee and then do not answer the call. Should we ake a directory of such persons/organisations for the benefit of all? more

There cannot be any adverse demotion or orders for recovery of an employee without following the principals of natural justice meaning thereby without giving you a reason or show cause.

Otherwise, civil court is the only option. more

I agree with Mr. Atul Jauhari, "Unfortunate but true, we have limited options available for fighting against our employer. Especially, when employer is as powerful as DPS School. " Still, in your case your promotion was done in good faith and the salary rise was given. I am not able to quote, but the SC has decided long back that any such promotion done in good faith with salary rise, cannot be demoted back and the rise disbursed recovered. You have a fit case to fight out in the court, may be in the Administrative Tribunal or the Labour Court. It will be a long drawn battle. more
