Respected sir,
I am Group B, gazetted official in central government government office & was absent to duty for three days due to medical emergency ( stomach pain and loose motions).
I have informed the same by phone and office email. After 3days, I reported to duty along medical certificate issued by government medical officer.
My office has enquired (1. Asked about doctor and his residence. 2. Asked why I have not taken treatment from CGHS hospital and I have replied that it was night when I was suffering with loose motions and stomach pain and approached near by government medical officer and he issued the certificate accordingly) about my absence found satisfactory.
In the first week of October 2024, my office has silently published order Dies Non ( no work no pay punishment for that 3days stating as unauthorised absence).
My self and my senior officers are requested to commute the absence in to ELs or HPLs since the absence is genuine and medical emergency is real. But he not accepted to commute though I have 300 ELs and 200 HPL in my account. I will be retired within 15 months. (i.e. on 31 Jan 2026).
I have been rigorously serving the department more than 26 years. I have also personally asked pardon and submitted my apologies personally. But not reconsidered is decision of Dies Non.
My queries are:-
1.Really, what is my mistake?
2. What shall I do at this juncture?
3. Inspite of informing my absence in advance by email and submitting a valid medical certificate due to medical emergency for short period( 03 days), is it unauthorised absence?
Kindly suggest.
Your sincerely
G. Vijay
