Hi,
What I would suggest you is to talk with your new company and tell them that instead of giving them the releiving letter, you can give them a read receipt copy of your resignation email. Further in order to protect them from any future problems, you can give them an option of signing an affidavit which would state that you will be solely responsible for any financial liability if your previous company files any civil case against you in future.
Hope they will agree to your proposal.
Regards.

Hi,
Just for your information in India there is no concept of a "bonded labor"!
In my previous organization we had the same "bond" system. However there were many people who left the place before the bond period and the organization could not do anything about it as Indian Law does not entertain "Bonded labor" concept!
If the organization is not giving you the relieving letter then I suggest you take a printout of your resignation email that you had sent to your superiors and show it as proof rather than making a fake one.
All the best!

Dear Sir,

I need your help regarding the Bond Issue with me. I am a Mechanical Engineer who joined ABC company, which takes a contract from XYZ company. My offer letter does not cover any bond concept. However, when I joined the company, they made me sign a one-sided bond. In case of breaching the bond before 2 years, I am required to pay 50,000 Rs to the company on a 50 Rs stamp paper. If I had not signed the bond, they would not have paid me the salary.

After joining, I discovered that they are also deducting money for leaves - 15 leaves yearly, with a refund after a year. Additionally, there are no specific leave categories like SL, PL, etc. If we take leaves, our salary gets deducted.

They do not provide salary slips. Moreover, there are different working hours for girls and boys; boys work from 9:30 to 7:30, while girls work from 9:30 to 6:30. Our job role involves high risk as it is in the Oil & Gas Field, with no insurance coverage provided by the company except for the WC policy. I am concerned about the benefits of the WC policy if an unfortunate incident were to occur in the field.

Given this situation, is it justifiable to breach the bond? I have completed 4 months and wish to leave the company due to this form of harassment.
