Legal Question in Employment Law in India

Hi,

I am working with a public sector bank, and during a Departmental Inquiry bank has wrongly proved the charges against me without considering the facts and submissions from my side. Please note that I am under suspension since May 2008 in another case, which is in Court of Law. They wrongly penalized me as below:

"Reduction to four stages low in the time scale of pay for two years. Further he will not earn increments of pay during the period of such reduction and on expiry of such period the reduction will have the effect of postponing the future increments of his pay."

Could you please clarify what does it mean, in lay-man language? Example: date on which the order will be effective and till when? What is the penalty? Any impacts on promotions?

Also, please guide me on appropriate forum to take up this matter to get relief? If high court then, which court: the letter is issued from New Delhi while my last posting was in UP?

Thank you for your kind help.

Dear Sachin,

Any griviance of this sort is resolved before the High Court under a Writ Petition.

Now whether Delhi High Court will have the jurisdiction or the Allahbad High Court that is to be seen from your employment state.
