Admn1,
Did you report the absence???
Another thing, the company will mark you on duty only till the period you need to be there to close the meeting and then the time required to travel back...
Once back in the city, it is your responsibility to be at office.... Instead of full day you could have called up the person and said since you've reach the city at 9am only you'd appreciate if the company allows you to go home and freshen up and discount your working to a half day....
Secondly, you mention you start from Delhi early 4.30 am and reached lucknow at 7.30 am (3 hours travel)
While coming back you took bus at 10 pm and reach Delhi next day at 9 am (11 hours travel)
How is it that the travel time has changed to almost 4 times while in return???

Dear Ankita,
Beautiful analysis Ankita. I appreciate your ability to analyse posts critically. It deserves more than appreciation.
In fact these questions came to my mind also. Anyway, same question you also have asked.
To the poster of the query: - You could have clarified about your post-travel off (from your seniors) well before your travel. You could have obtained approval from the authorities concerned and sent this approval to this HR. If you had been proactive, you could have avoided this post.
Anyway as a follow-up, I recommend you getting regularised your absence from the seniors. You may even ask HR itself on how to regularise this absence.
You might be doing good job also. However, mere working sincerely is not sufficient. We need to be careful in avoiding these pinpricks as well.
Ok...

Admn1,
Depending on the availability the company might have given you the tickets for bus/plane.
But at the bottom line, a full day to rest is not something appreciated...
Another thing as Mr. Dinesh said, we are assuming that the trip was planned... In this case you should have told your HR/senior that since you'd reach the city by 9 am you'd need some time to freshen up before you can report to work.... A half day would have been allowed but a full day is I believe too much to ask for... Seniors please advise.

Dear friend,
This is my follow up post.
Everybody commits mistakes. We learn by committing mistakes. You have following lessons to learn from the incident:
a) "Communication" is more than body language or eye contact. It is important to ask for information or give information.
b) You should be proactive in asking or seeking information'
c) "Do not assume anything" is the first rule of communication. Your absence for extra half is out of assumption that it would be granted. You could have approval for that.
Anyway, do not get demotivated. As stated in my earlier post, talk to your superiors/HR and if they agree then put up application for regularisation of absence. If they accede your request then well and good if not, take it in your stride and move on.
Ok...
