I am a central govt. (PSU) employee in Delhi. I resigned from my central govt job based on my personal reasons. In my appointment order, they have mentioned that I have to pay one month's salary or provide a one-month notice period for resignation.
I applied for an exam after joining the central govt (PSU). At the time of application, the online system did not consider my experience, as it was only a few months. Therefore, I had to apply as a non-employee candidate without following the proper channels. I attended the interview and got selected for a new govt job without obtaining a No Objection Certificate (NOC). I submitted my resignation based on personal reasons with one month's notice period. However, my resignation was not accepted (they somehow found out about my new job) even after the one-month notice period had passed. There has been no response from HR; they neither accepted nor rejected my resignation, and nothing was provided in writing. What should I do? If I join the new job without receiving acceptance of resignation from the previous employer since the new employer did not request a relieving letter, what are the potential consequences I might face from both the new and old employers?
If I have not followed the proper channel rules, then the PSU where I am currently employed is also not adhering to the protocols by failing to accept or reject my resignation within a month without providing a reason. I genuinely do not wish to continue working here (PSU). What should be my course of action?
I have only six days left to join the new govt job. Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Dear friend,
After entering formal paid employment in an organization, one should have a thorough understanding of the conduct rules of the organization applicable to its employees. Particularly, in matters of switching jobs while in service, notwithstanding the sectoral classification of the organization, a serving employee is generally expected to apply for any job within the same organization or elsewhere through proper channel only whether his service is short or long. If he decides in his own wisdom on the basis of his small stint in the existing organization to skip the rule, his action results in suppression of facts to both his current employer and the future employer as well.
Coming to the poster's case, his narration shows that it is only his surmise that the delay in the acceptance of his resignation could be due to the fact of his suppression having come to the knowledge of the management. His final comment turning the tables against the management not accepting or rejecting his resignation so far is only indicative of his frustration.
The interpersonal relationship among employees in PSUs would be generally smooth as individual whims and fancies cannot easily surpass the procedural aspects in any given situation. Therefore, the poster can approach the HRD in person and politely persuade a positive action in his favor.

To add to what Umakanthan Sir has said, it is okay not to have mentioned your employment status while applying to a new PSU. However, you could have informed the employer at the time of going for the interview, and all the inconveniences caused could have been avoided.
It is important to understand that resignation is not solely a matter of the employee's right. The establishment reserves the right to either accept or reject the resignation. Since you have already served the notice period and there has been no response rejecting the resignation, the likelihood of rejection is now minimal, especially considering it is a PSU. They may take some time in processing the request, so it is advisable to follow up with the HR Department or your boss/HOD to inquire about the current status.
Although the new employer may not insist on a relieving letter, once your KYC details are logged in for Family Pension Purposes, the new employer will be able to access your employment history.

Hi,
Now I am in training. I really don't like to work here. I have been trying hard for the last year to explore other options. Now, what should I do? I want to leave this PSU. I have approached HR, but I have received no response. If I do not want to work and my file is clear, the mistake of not following the proper channel for my application was due to my unawareness as this is my first job and I am not familiar with the exact rules. What rules make me work against my will? I have not done anything detrimental to the company. I worked hard for the exam, so why should I leave now?
What would be the consequences if I leave the PSU now, both from my present employer and future employers?
Thank you.

Hi KK Sir,
What should I do if they are just holding the file? As per company rules, trainee officers' requests for applying for another job through the proper channel will not be considered (there is no point in giving through the proper channel also). I am worried about my position if they release me after the joining date of the other job finishes. Am I still an employee of this company after the notice period is over? What will happen if I don't take the relieving letter?
