Since you are in a Govt. setup and pay commission depends on the govt. policy. I am not the right person to suggest on it.
You can seek advice from a legal expert on this.

I was working in a governments university on temporay basis for 10 years. After 10 years I got a fresh job in the same university but was appointed on tenure basis and contiued to work for 23 years without any break till my retirement. During these 23 years my employer was completely silent on my tenure period and never specified my tenure period. Now I am asking them to pay my grautity and leave encashment. But they are counting my first period of 10 years and are not counting my second period of 23 years of service. Kindly let me know what can I do to get all the 33 years of service counted for claimimg retirement benefis.
Ans: You have a strong case to argue that all 33 years of service should be counted for your retirement benefits, including gratuity and leave encashment. Here's what you can do:

Approach your University's HR Department:

Clearly explain your situation, highlighting the 10 years of temporary service followed by the uninterrupted 23 years of tenure-based service.
Emphasize that your employer never specified an end date for your temporary period, and your service transitioned seamlessly into a permanent role.
Refer to University Employment Rules:

Research the university's employment rules and regulations regarding temporary staff transitioning to permanent positions. These rules might mention how the service period is calculated in such cases.
Gather Evidence:

Collect any documents proving your continuous service for 33 years. This could include appointment letters, salary slips, identity cards, or any other documentation that reflects your employment period.
Consider Union Representation (if applicable):

If your university has a staff union, seek their guidance and representation. They might be familiar with similar cases and can help you navigate the process.
Legal Consultation:

If the university remains unresponsive, consider consulting a lawyer specializing in labor law. They can advise you on your legal rights and potential courses of action, such as filing a petition with a labor tribunal.
Key Points:

The continuous nature of your service for 33 years strengthens your case.
University employment rules might have specific guidelines for such situations.
Documentation and evidence are crucial to support your claim.
Explore union representation or legal consultation if necessary.
Remember, persistence and clear communication are key. By presenting a well-documented case and highlighting the continuous nature of your service, you can increase your chances of having all 33 years counted for your retirement benefits.

I am 32 and I have been working really hard to build my career. I love what I do, and I've invested a lot of time and energy to grow in my role. But somehow, at work, especially during informal conversations, people often ask me questions like, 'When are you planning to settle down?' or 'Any baby plans on the horizon?' or even worse, 'You should start thinking about family before it's too late.' Sometimes these are casual remarks during lunch breaks, after meetings when the tone turns casual. Surprisingly, it's not always from older colleagues. Even people my age do it. It's personally frustrating because the underlying message seems to be: Your career is fine for now, but surely you will slow down or quit once you get married or have kids, right? It feels like no matter how well I perform or how passionate I am about my work, there's always this unspoken assumption that it's all temporary. I don't want to snap or sound defensive because that often backfires. At the same time, I also don't want to smile politely and let these questions continue. I want to protect my boundaries while still being professional and graceful.
Ans: Hi!!

To be in a position where you are today and say, ' I love what I do', is simply stupendous, congratulations!

In the context of you being 32 and still unmarried will definitely get you the comments that you are receiving... and like you said they are happening informally casually... so just treat them that way, casually... answer them, don't avoid them or don't show annoyance. Just answer them with a ,"not happening anytime soon, ask me after 02 years", or any other casual remark you deem fit.

I can understand the frustration...forget about what other people are trying to imply etc , they are just casual remarks and take them that way.
"I don't want to snap or sound defensive because that often backfires", this is your remark I am requoting, don't give too much importance to it, if you are sure of what you want in life, you don't have to explain anything to others, it is none of their business any way, just shrug your shoulders and move on! You can't change people...
Also I would like to state, that it is ok to take a break when you marry or have a child after marriage... it is so normal, and thankfully you are in an era where these are recognized as important milestones in life and a women after a break is welcomed back with open arms by the same organizations. With your kind of credentials I don't think you'll ever have any problem getting back to work after a break.

Wishing that you make peace with yourself and the world around you...work is just one part of life. Take care of yourself and all the very best!!

Dear sir, Greetings.My son got a rank 1681 in TSEAPCET examination and wants to study B.Tech (BioTechnology) IN JNTU,Hyderabad.He is a BiPC student in Intermediate.Please guide us regarding the prosperity in Biotechnology and how much it is good for professionwise.And what jobs he will get and how much approximate remuneration he will get.He attended NEET exam also and likely to get a seat in MBBS in B category in Telangana.But he shows inclination towards B.Tech (Bio Technology).His point is Medical stream takes more years to complete with post graduation and super speciality.Please give your opinion.Next point is B.Tech(BioTechnology) started in JNTU only 2 years back.Will there be any disadvantage of lab facilities and infrastructure and if so,how will it affect the student"s educatuion and job skills/understanding in the college.Please guide me. Thanks and Best Regards. NVRSrinivas
Ans: Your son's perception of MBBS is right. So, please avoid MBBS. Given your son’s inclination towards B.Tech Biotechnology and preference for a shorter duration course with an early career start, JNTU Hyderabad’s program is a viable choice with promising career prospects. The biotechnology sector’s growth and interdisciplinary nature offer strong professional opportunities. If he is passionate about biotechnology rather than clinical medicine, this path aligns well with his interests and career timeline. Remuneration depends upon his Profile Buidling during the next 4 years, Upgrading his skills, Researching about Job Market through Professional Social Media like LinkedIn etc.

If desired, he can pursue higher studies (M.Tech, MSc, PhD) later in India/Abroad to enhance expertise and salary potential. Meanwhile, the current job market for biotechnology graduates is expanding, with roles in pharma companies, research labs, healthcare startups, and agricultural biotech firms. Job

This balanced approach respects his preference and ensures a strong foundation for a rewarding career in biotechnology. All the best for your admissions!
