I was working as a probationary officer (joined in July 2016) in a public sector bank. But due to my mother's poor health, I was unable to attend the bank for 9 months. I had informed my branch head and the bank's HR team that I would be on extended leave, but I did not specify the duration as it was unclear at the time. When I returned after 9 months, I discovered that I had been terminated from my position after 6 months due to excessive leaves and being absent from the bank.
Now that I have been terminated, my main concern is whether I can apply for a government bank job or any other government job. I understand it may be inappropriate to ask, but can I omit details of my previous employment if I apply for a new job or secure a position in another government job? Your advice is crucial to me as my future depends on it.

First of all, being a probationer, you did not have any lien, and taking such a long leave was a serious blunder committed by you. Anyway, the past is past and shall be ignored. But when you apply for a government/public sector opening, you cannot hide your bank service. If you mention the bank job, the next question will be why you abandoned the job, and that might end your selection. Once terminated from the public sector, it is very difficult to get into another public sector company. However, if you can prove to be 'efficient,' you may have opportunities in private sector companies. This also depends on your ability to establish that your presence with your mother was more important to you than the job and that you had informed the bank that you would require around nine months' leave to take care of your mother, etc. The rest is up to the management to decide.
In the private sector, your performance is what matters, and once selected, no one is going to ask about your past as long as you excel in your work. In the public sector, on the other hand, your background should be impeccable. Even if you do not work, you can remain there as long as your appointment was in line with the policy.

It's wrong to think of suppressing facts. Always face the truth. If you want to showcase your caliber, you can triumph. Success may not come in the very first attempt. Keep trying until you achieve your goal.

As pointed out above, the fact of termination of service cannot be suppressed and it will come out sooner or later. Since your service was terminated for unauthorized absence, it is not a disqualification for service in the government sector. Better be prepared to answer a lot of questions on the factual background leading to the termination of service and the compelling circumstances thereof.
