Hi, I have been working with one of the edutech companies, at the time of recruitment I was given a contractual role and after one year they confirmed my role as full time in March 2022. Now this company said that there would be a 3rd party background verification and we need to provide details of our education and past employment which I did it. Now in my educational qualifications, I only submitted my B.Ed and forgot to upload my b.com and MBA and the BGV was closed. Now after a month, I got a call from HR stating that my b.ed is not validated by the university and to provide evidence.
After hearing this news I immediately approached the university and they stated that the management has sold off the college to some other party and they dont have their old management working with them anymore. Now when I told this to my HR she doesn't want to buy my point. Also, I told the hR to consider my other certificates and initiate a BGV for which she was adamant stating that since I have submitted B.Ed for BGV she would only question me on this and will not consider any other. Please help me what to do in such a situation. I have been duped by the university which I've mentioned to my hr but she is not ready to listen and says to provide a letter from the university stating the same the university refused to answer me. Kindly advise

No one can obtain a B.Ed degree without a basic degree or P.G.degree recognized for the purpose.
The poster should disclose the fact whether the B.Ed degree was awarded by the College or the said University and whether the University to which the College was affiliated is one recognized by the U.G.C.

But Umakanth Sir my company would just not buy my point and I am being questioned badly on how i have attained this degree. However, I have told my company HR alternatively to verify my B.Com and MBA instead of B.ed but they just refusing to do so stating that since I have submitted B.Ed documents for BGV, they will only consider that. Please advise me how to convince my HR and also will i be blacklisted or should I resign first.
Please advise.

First important matter you have not clarified is,
on what basis did the company hire you?
Was it based on the fact that you have Bcom/MBA or that you were BEd ?
If you got the job based on your BEd degree, and it turns out to be fake, then obviously your employment has no basis and they are definitely in their rights to reject your contention and terminate you.
What you probably should do is to go to the relevant manager and ask them what they wish to do. If they wish to retain you (would be based on your performance), then I am sure he will speak to HR and take a call. On the other hand, if they don't want you, you may as well look for another job

Dear Anonymous,
First of all, please do not worry about this issue. BGV verification issues are very common in India and should be handled in a prudent manner.
Practical advice - despite a change in management of your college/ University, you need to check for a contact person who will look into the records and confirm about award and details of degree. I would suggest, please visit your college/ university briefly for speaking to the person who is designated to handle verification of awarded degrees. Usually, there is a team/ person in college who deals with this.
Do not worry, it should be verified and then your BGV results should be satisfactory.
Thank you.

Even if the college is sold off, still the records regarding admission made would be permanent records of it and would be available. They cannot just wash their hands off saying that there is a change of management. By the bye, did you not receive the degree certificate from the University. It is only the college that is sold off, the University remains in safe hands. Since all colleges have to report to the university on the admissions made every year, the University also would have the record. It can be accessed.
