Transfers and Postings: Transfers and postings of government employees, particularly those perceived as punitive or politically motivated, are another common source of litigation. Employees may contest their transfers on the grounds of mala fide intentions or the absence of lawful justification. The lack of clear and transparent policies regarding transfers further exacerbates the situation.

Disciplinary Actions: Disciplinary actions, such as suspensions, terminations, or demotions, often lead to disputes. Employees subjected to such actions may challenge them by arguing procedural lapses, violations of the principles of natural justice, or the imposition of disproportionate penalties. The lengthy process of disciplinary inquiries and the possibility of bias in decision-making often lead to protracted legal battles.

Contractual Employees: The status of contractual employees, who are often denied the benefits and protections available to regular civil servants, is another contentious issue. These employees may challenge their non-regularization, unfair termination, or denial of benefits, leading to complex legal disputes over their employment status.

Complexity of Laws and Regulations: The complexity and multiplicity of laws, rules, and regulations governing service matters pose another challenge. Frequent amendments, overlapping provisions, and inconsistent interpretations by different judicial forums create confusion and make it difficult for both government employees and legal practitioners to navigate the system.

Inadequate Legal Representation: Many government employees, particularly those in lower grades, lack access to adequate legal representation. This disparity often results in weaker cases, where employees are unable to effectively present their grievances or challenge unfair actions.

Political Influence: Political influence and interference in service matters remain a persistent issue. Decisions regarding appointments, promotions, and transfers are sometimes influenced by political considerations rather than merit or legal principles. This undermines the integrity of the service and leads to disputes and dissatisfaction among employees.

Lack of Awareness: Many government employees are not fully aware of their rights and the legal remedies available to them under service law. This lack of awareness often results in the acceptance of unfair treatment or the failure to pursue legitimate claims through the appropriate legal channels.
