In the case of doctors employed by the Union government, labor laws such as the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, apply to termination procedures. Termination without reason typically requires a notice period of one month, along with severance pay equivalent to 15 days' salary for each year of service. At AIIMS, guidelines mandate that any termination must follow due process, ensuring that employees are informed and given an opportunity to respond. If reasons for termination are not provided, employees have the right to seek clarification and potentially challenge the decision legally.

Sir, the doctors at union government institutions like AIIMS have protections against unfair termination and they must be given notice and a chance to explain themselves. If someone feels they've been wrongly terminated so they can file a complaint with the help of an expert lawyer who will assist you with the best course of action.
