I am a security supervisor in a security agency in Chandigarh. They removed me from duty and appointed another man in my place. What should I do? Please let me know. Should I move to court, and which option would be better?
Please help me.

Abundant jobs in the field of security are available. Why don't you join another security agency? Why waste time in litigation? Trust is the underlying factor in the employer-employee relationship. Trust cannot be enforced through legal means. Yes, your removal could be illegal. However, take advantage of your field. The security field is ever-growing, and there is an insatiable demand for security personnel. Generally, security agencies do not delve deeply into checking the antecedents of why security personnel were removed. This is one more advantage!
Go back to them, get the proper relieving letter, and start searching for a new job.
All the best!

When the security agency removed you, there must have been some reason. It could be due to a variety of factors such as a mismatch between the expectations of your boss and your performance, your misjudgment, a grave mistake by your subordinate, a complaint by the customer, being replaced with a lower salary, internal politics, etc. During your tenure, you should have been cautious about protecting your employment. Once you are out of a job, taking on another assignment becomes a fait accompli.
Filing a suit is fine; however, it could take a decade to achieve justice. Is this acceptable to you? The bark is worse than the bite, goes the English idiom. When we relate this idiom to the Indian judicial system, we can say that the wait is worse than the verdict. Therefore, please choose your path carefully.
In the meantime, if you seek justice, let me suggest a viable option. Approach the Labor Officer of your area and explain the problem. Let's see if he can assist you.

Your posts indicate that your designation was Security Supervisor and your monthly salary was Rs. 26,000. Was your work predominantly of a supervisory nature, i.e., supervision of other security guards placed under your control? If yes, you cannot seek any remedy under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, as you were not a "workman" as defined under section 2(s) of the Act. In that case, the alternative remedy is filing a civil case, which is expensive as well as time-consuming. When your employability is more, try the suggestion recommended by Mr. Dinesh.
