Hello All,
My brother's 498a wife has reached his college. This college is run by the government. He had worked at one place for almost 2 years, but they gave my brother an experience letter for three years so that he could apply for this college where he is currently teaching. Now, the facts are as follows:
1. He worked at place 1 for two years from 2002 to 2004 in a private college.
2. Then he worked at a primary school from 2004 onwards in a government college, but as it was a small job for him, he removed this experience from his resume forever.
3. He received an experience letter from place 1 from 2002 to 2005. So, that means 2 years for true work and one year for fake. However, that year was not entirely fake as he helped the school on weekends and online, etc. The issue is that from 2004 to 2005, he worked at two places.
His wife knew all these things, but we forgot. So, she approached RTI and showed that my brother had worked at two places at the same time. Fortunately, something happened due to our good luck:
The experience letter, which was half fake and half real, does not have the director's signature, so it's just a simple paper. When the interview panel noticed the missing cross signature on the document, they did not consider the letter. The school management is well aware that this experience, which is not entirely fake, was not taken into account when giving my brother an appointment letter.
However, with the change in management, my brother's wife met the new management and said negative things about my brother. Consequently, they sent him a notice detailing all the data showing that he had worked at two places. Now, the management has asked my brother to explain why he worked at two places. If he does not respond to this letter, they may take legal action. I have the following questions regarding this:
Questions Regarding Legal and Employment Consequences
1. Since the management knows that this letter was not considered for the job, can they still file an FIR based on the documents showing that my brother worked at two places at different times?
2. Is this a billable offense?
3. Can the management terminate his employment? If it were a private company, they might have fired him for any reason. What authority does a government-supported college have in this situation?
4. What kind of fraud would this be classified as, e.g., 420, etc.? What is the worst that could happen to my brother?
5. If the management remains silent as my brother did not harm the school, and his performance is exceptionally good, and this matter is 8 years old, can his wife file a complaint based on these documents?
Note: My brother cannot claim that he did not receive this experience letter as he also filled out an application detailing his experience letter. Additionally, his wife obtained all his work data from this place.
Thanks,
