Mental harassment and suspension threats at work

My father is a central government employee,currently working under the home ministry.
He joined the office nearly 3 months back as a group A officer,ever since then he's been under severe pressure because of the work load and non-cooperation of his juniors and even his seniors.
There are two more similar posts(same as my father's)in the office,all of which have been vacant for a long time until my father was promoted(from a non-officer class job) and made to occupy one of these designations. Now,since he's only new to this job and there is no one around to guide him with his work and duties,my father faced a lot of hardships in the beginning but even after he tried taking control of things and learning how to work around things himself,his fellow coworkers,instead of helping him do so, have only caused him more and more trouble every-time ,mostly ON PURPOSE.
His juniors have not had a healthy relationship among themselves since before he joined this office,they keep fighting among themselves and end leave all the work they've to do as it is.But since my father is the one who actually holds some authority and is responsible for the work. So, keeping in mind that at the end it'll be him who has to answer the delay(and also to maintain a healthy work atmosphere,as their senior), every time my father tries to solve their issues,they all suddenly unify and start THREATENING HIM.One of them has even declared right to his face"I'll only work as much as I feel like.Do whatever you feel like.I'm not scared of anyone".My father has reported this issue to his seniors many time but they aren't interested in the least.All they care about is getting the work done at time,even if he has to do 10 men's work all by himself.
My father has even tried convincing his juniors,by calling them personally after office hours and literally pleading to them to understand his position and to please cope-up with each other but they've straight forward denied his humble request.
Since these past two months, he's been under severe depression and his health has went down greatly. I've never seen my dad so tensed my whole life.
He starts having panic attacks,feels like throwing up all the time and is so depressed that he's sometimes not even aware of his surroundings.
All these things added up to the ailments he's already suffering from(High BP,cholesterol,thyroid,cervical pain among them) have taken a huge toll on his health.
He's applied for a transfer but its already been over a month and a half since that and even though the application was forwarded by his senior, who is totally against the idea(and actually added content against it, from his own side),the application has not even reached the officer who is ultimately in-charge.
The matter has not only been affecting him,but also us,the rest of his family.The sadness is reaching us all.
One more thing I would like to add is that my father had not gone to the office for the past three days due to bad health(caused,of course,by these circumstances) and today when he did,his senior handed him some kind of memo(I don't exactly know if that's an office slang) and warned him of his suspension.But this isn't the first time he's done so.Like i mentioned before,every time my father's juniors get in a fight and leave all the work,its my father who has to suffer,and every time he gets a suspension threat

So finally, I ask you if there's anything the law can do to help us while keeping my my father's job and dignity and help our family in these grave circumstances?

Execution of decree - specific performance of agreement

Respected Experts,
we have filed execution of decree in specific performance of agreement case. Sale consideration is deposited in treasury after refusal of JD to accept sale consideration and draft sale deed is also finalized as per objection raised by JD's.
Now Court will be required to appoint Local commissioner as JD are not executing sale deed.

Do we need to create another draft sale deed to be executed by Local commissioner and also seek concurrence of JD or earlier sale deed approved by JD will suffice the purpose?

Earlier it took around one year to finalize this draft sale deed and do we need to spent all this time again in changed circumstances ?

Change in place of birth in passport- india

Hi,

please advise me how to change the place of birth in Passport. I had my first passport issued from Trivandrum Kerala in 1994 and it got expired in 2004. in That my place of birth mentioned is "KUNDARA". I have submited my 10th certificate for issuing the passport. in 2001 i made my birth certificate from where I was born, ie. "IPALLOOR". Both KUNDARA and AIPALLOOR falls under the same district KOLLAM and State Kerala. In 2015 i applied for renewal of my passport and as per the initial passport all the datas copied in that and Place of birth mentioned as KUNDARA only. Now when I was filling out my form for the immigration to USA I noticed the discrepancy in Place of birth. its diffrent in Birth certificate and passport which is not acceptable by US. So I applied for change in place of birth. Police verification done everything is perfect but now the RPO need an affidavit duly signed by Metropolitan Majistrate/Judge. I have approached so many advocates for this and they all said it can't be done.

Please advise me how can I get it done as I need the passport urgently for submitting DS260 form.

The RPO said I can't get it attested by a SDM,EM or Notary. How can MM/Judge will attest my affidavit.

Please please help me

Hindu daughter's right of ancestors land if father dies before 2001

I am writing this on behalf a 60 yrs old women who is married in year 1980 in a town in Maharashtra

-------------------------------------------------------

My Father has Died in year 2001 in Amravati due to a disease

He has Ancestors Land near a village in nagpur which he has received from his father (i..e my grand father)

We are 5 sisters and 5 brother (total 10) and my mother is also alive

In year 2012 My 5 brothers sold that Land for 5 crores and divided (1 crore each) equally among them without knowledge of any sisters or mother

Now we all sisters came to know about this, when asked they said daughters don't have any right on fathers (especially ancestral) Land and legally no sister can make any claim

Is this True ?

Does daughter dont have right on ancestral

When My father was alive he said he want to give me some money after selling Land because my financial condition was weak but he died suddenly due to a disease before making any Legal Will (testament)

Let me know if this is correct ?
DO I have any right or not ?

-------------------------------------------------------

Please Answer this

Tenant missing, unpaid rent, tenant eviction

My shop was built in June 1989. I let out the same in December 1989 with rent agreement which clearly mentions that Act no.13, 1972 does not apply.
-The tenant had not paid the rent since 01-01-2005 and the shop is closed since then.
-He was living in a rented accommodation in our town as mentioned in the agreement. I inquired about his whereabouts at the location mentioned in the agreement, but I found that he have left the town. His location is now unknown to me as well as the nearby residents & shop owners of that locality. This means he left the town without handing over the shop.
-I have discussed the same with a practicing lawyer. He said that you have to issue a claim notice to tenant & if he does not receive the notice then we can't claim your property in the court.
-Now as the whereabouts of the tenant is unknown to me as well as the nearby residents & shop owners, How can I claim my property back? What sections & rulings would be applicable?
-Also, if this tenant's location continues to remain unknown, then will my property remain in his possession, given that the shop remains closed since January 2005 & without rent payment?
