One of my colleagues was blessed with a baby boy. He now has 3 children. He took paternity leave twice in the past. However, the HR department has denied paternity leave for the 3rd baby, stating that he had already taken leave twice before. They mentioned that they can grant leave for up to twice, but not more than that.
What can we do for him in this situation? Are there specific rules regarding paternity leave that you could share?

There is no such act that extends benefits to fathers for their child's birth. If any organization is providing a facility, it is governed by the policies of the establishment.
Our government adheres to a two-child norm; therefore, it is understandable for your HR to deny extending the facility for the birth of a third child.
