Hi,I have a query not relevant to this thread. I am currently working in a govt office and submitted my resignation on personal grounds yesterday. I don't want to go there during the notice period without obtaining any leave. Will it affect me anyway in the future?Also do we submit our relief order or experience certificate in case of past employment in government office?Please this is really important to me. Anyone with experience in this area, please help me out.Also for those wondering why I am leaving a govt job. They are literally harassing me because I am preparing for civil services, I had no other alternative.Thanks.
Hi,
I can relate to your situation. Thankfully, my seniors are very supportive.
As it's a govt organization, I would strongly suggest to deal things in good faith. If they are already harrasing you, then can also chose to not accept your resignation and enforce the notice period. Despite the egos, my humble and strong advice would be don't take panga. Would also suggest to re-consider resigning. With the unpredictable nature of the CSE, the fact that you have a good job definitely soothes your nerves.
1. Withdraw your resignation if you can.
2. If sure to resign, complete the required formalities in good faith.
My 2 cents.

Could complete only half of it. UPSC told me no need to study more, ever. It was my second and agewise last attempt.
No regrets. Gave my all. Was in full warrior mode with my notes, short notes, audio revisions. There was uncertainty regarding prelims, but I deliberately cultivated the virtue of performing amidst uncertainty. Was almost successful. Life has it's own turns.
The people on this thread have been super inspiring. After the results, everyone in my family was so happy. May be they wanted to cheer me up. Now back to wife and life.
I love my current job a lot too. Jitne armaan Hain, jarur niklenge.
All the best to forum people. Give your best. Keep your options open. Have a great life.
This prep made me revive my good habits of pranayam, meditation, controlling mind chatter. The skills learnt will be extremely useful. Chapter closed. Logging out.
Sarve sukhinah bhavantu, sarve santu niramaya! May we we all realize the true purpose of our lives.
