I work with an education institute for past 3 years. I have applied for maternity leave as per the formalities asked over official email and have submitted my medical also. I haven't received any reply from HR as their intentions are not to pay me. But I have done my formalities.
I am eligible for 6 months paid? Is there any way they can stop my monthly salary??
Also is there any grounds of terminating pregnant women during maternity leave?

How many employees are there in the institute?
If 10 or more,you are eligible for ML and salary.
Maternity Benefits Act provides statutory protection to employees who are on maternity leave.
Keep your documents up to date.Intimate your pregnancy officially in writing and ask for leave in writing well in advance.
If problems arise,labour officer of area can help you.

Hi,
Every employer that has more than 10 employees working in his/her establishment is required to provide maternity benefit to every woman employee.
In case, the HR department is not responding to your request, please approach your higher management.
The last resort is to approach the labor officer of your area to resolve this issue
