'Haven't Been Paid For 5 Years': Declared Dead, Rohtak Man Breaks Down Before Collector
Last Updated: Vijay Kumar, surviving on food from temples and gurudwaras to feed his family, continues to suffer from the Public Health Department's administrative errors Declared 'dead" in Aadhaar records, a Rohtak man broke down during a Grievances Committee meeting, recounting how he has gone months without pay and years battling wage issues despite 15 years in the Public Health Department. The man alleged that he had been working in the Public Health Department at the DC rate (minimum wage rate) for the past 15 years but had not received a salary for the last five years. He was dismissed midway and, after being reinstated, has gone without pay for the past six months. Dressed in tattered clothes, he wept as officials revealed that he had been mistakenly declared dead in the Aadhaar records. DC Dharmendra Singh presided over the meeting, addressing various complaints. Vijay Kumar, the distressed individual, shared that he has been working for 16 years with a break in between, during which an XEN (Executive Engineer) had sent him home. After a transfer, a new XEN rehired him, but he has not been paid since the pandemic began. Vijay mentioned that he has filed a court case, explaining that departmental portals close upon his arrival, only reopening in court sessions. He added that his family ID was recently corrected by the ADC. DC Dharmendra Singh conceded that the mistakes by employees and officers led to Vijay being mistakenly listed as deceased. The necessary corrections have now been made, and officers have been instructed to resolve his issue promptly. The meeting received 16 complaints, with 10 resolved and 6 deferred to the next meeting. The Labour Court has issued payment orders, and Vijay's case will undergo further investigation to identify the cause of the oversight. view comments First Published: August 12, 2025, 15:37 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

The measures seek to protect public funds and ensure employees comply with workplace regulations whilst offering them the right to appeal decisions affecting their legal status or job conditions. The framework promotes fairness, job satisfaction, and stability in work environments across covered entities. The Decision stipulates who can serve on the Central Violations Committee, its responsibilities, and procedures for addressing financial and administrative violations. Clear criteria for disciplinary penalties ensure investigations remain objective and allow employees to provide written statements in their defence. The regulations prohibit multiple penalties for the same offence and require penalties to be proportionate to violation severity. All disciplinary action must be justifiable and limited to penalties allowed by law. The Decision outlines the scope and powers of the Grievances Committee and establishes a 15 working day deadline for employees to submit grievances from the date they receive notification of contested decisions. Grievances submitted after this period will be considered invalid. Both employees and entities concerned must comply with Grievances Committee rulings. Entities must enforce rulings and inform the Financial Audit Authority once implementation is complete. The Decision requires both committees to maintain confidentiality of all sessions, discussions, records, and information. Disclosures are permitted only with approval from the Director General of the Financial Audit Authority and when serving the public interest. The Financial Audit Authority will provide administrative and technical support to both committees to help fulfil their designated legal duties. This support operates pursuant to provisions of Law No. (4) of 2018, under which the Authority was established, and the newly promulgated Decision. The measures apply to all entities falling within the Financial Audit Authority's jurisdiction in Dubai. Also Read: Dubai Launches First Tokenised Real Estate Investment Platform
