• Possibility of joining a govt. dept without NOC from current emp

Dear Sir
I am holding a post in Govt. office for last 4 years. My employer does not provide me the NOC. Therefore, I applied for another Govt job without NOC and hided the fact that I am already a govt. servant. Subsequently, I have been selected to the post applied for without NOC.
Now, what should I do.
a) Is there any possibility of joining the new job without NOC ?
b) Can I produce the release order from my current job and submit the same to my new employer and request to grant me joining without any benefit of past services as I did not apply through proper channel or NOC
c) If i join the new job hiding all the history of my past services then what happens with the amount i have in my Permanent Retirement A/C No. (PRAN) i.e. 400000 aprx.

Thank you very much sir
Eagerly waiting for your reply.

1. Most govt employers seek a NOC from existing employer before inducting a govt employee. If the new employer permits you to join without NOC then you can join but the previous employer can initiate disciplinary proceedings against you if it decides to not to relieve you.

2. Concealment of material facts, such as the status of your current employment, is a ground for termination of an employee and also for his criminal prosecution.

3. The amount in your PRA cannot be attached by your new employer.
