Intimation of inconvenience is illegal?
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am a doctor with ESIC Hospital under ministry of Labour and Employment, Govt of India. I am living with my wife in the vicinity of the hospital where I am currently posted. Now my wife is pregnant for first time at her third trimester (last 3months) of pregnancy. There is no one other than me to take care of her medically, socially and in households. Now the authority wants to transfer me to an outstation dispensary for 1 year. So, before the order of transfer has been issued, I have given an intimation/information of my inconvenience (with necessary medical records and USG report of my wife) to move out of my present posting till the delivery of our unborn baby (about 3months of time), and requested them to avoid any such transfer order during the period.
Now the Medical Superintendent had called me in his office and verbally informed me that, by submitting the information/intimation in written, I have done a gross mistake and it goes against the CCS rule of Govt and he has kind of threatened me to damage my service record with the given application of fact and my inconvenience. He is trying to put pressure on me to withdraw the application by giving withdrawal letter.
Now my question is, have I really done a mistake legally by submitting an application of inconvenience?
N.B.- I have also forwarded the application through my HOD with my HOD's consent, HOD's sign with stamp on the application.
Please help.
