According to my contract, I am entitled to a D-type quarter, provided it's available. However, when I applied for it, I was told that it is not available. The only quarter available currently is reserved for HODs, and I was informed that it cannot be allotted to me because of that. I was also told that if I still want the quarter, I would need to pay rent equivalent to the HRA for regular employees, as I am on a contract basis. The type of quarter I am entitled to has been allotted to non-employees of the organization, while I, as a contract employee, am being denied it on the grounds of unavailability. Please advise on the legal actions I can take. Do I have any legal right to claim the house from non-employees? If the house cannot be vacated, can I request a higher category of house or demand the rent of the house I would take on my own?
You are entitled to a D-type quarter as per your contract. If unavailable, the organization must provide an alternative. You can request a higher category house or demand rent equivalent to regular employees. If denied unjustly then you may consider sending a legal notice with the help of an expert lawyer who will assist you to file a complaint in labor court.
