Aaked to resign under pregnancy period

• Increased Paid Maternity Leave: The MB Amendment Act has increased the duration of paid maternity leave available for women employees from the existing 12 weeks to 26 weeks.  Under the MB Amendment Act, this benefit could be availed by women for a period extending up to 8 weeks before the expected delivery date and remaining 18 weeks can be availed post childbirth. For women who are expecting after having 2 children, the duration of paid maternity leave shall be 12 weeks (i.e., 6 weeks pre and 6 weeks post expected date of delivery).
• So  9in order to escape 26 weeksmaternity leave with pay the em0ployers are forcing her to resign. Challenge this in a court o9f law or Law.What the employers are tryingto do is illegal and unjust.

She is working in a company in Bangalore in IT Field. She got confirmation letter in last December. She was initially 1 year under contract, then 1 year as Trainee software engineer and after December confirmed to Software engineer.

And to the amuse, she got a notice today officially mentioning that her performance for the last 1 month has been bad. Please find the content of the mail as below

Dear xxxxxxxx,

With regret we would like to inform that we have not got the renewal of the AMC from xxxxxxxx. The client decided not to renew the contract as you are unable to support from client location. As you know that the client coordinator is very particular about on-site support,

xxxxxxxx are not at all happy with the kind of support you are providing. You are well aware about the crisis they are going through. All the issues are getting escalated and xxxxxxxx as a company is loosing credibility which we have built over last 15 years.

They are not even getting timely updates from you. In good faith we have agreed for "Work from Home" but you are not even responding properly to the calls in this crisis situation.This kind of irresponsible behaviour is not expected from a senior resource like you.

Unfortunately we will not be able to continue with you. Kindly treat this as a formal notice. Please note it is a working notice period hence you will have to perform your duties as per the instructions given by your Project Manager.

Regards
xxxxxxxx
Manager-HR
