Dear Sir,
I am Mahesh, a Senior System Engineer in a firm. The company hired me stating that a bond is compulsory in the firm. However, after some time, I discovered that the company had deceived me. I have now resigned from my position due to inadequate economic and technical growth. The company is now asking me to pay 1 lakh rupees as a service bond. As a senior engineer, the company never provided me with any training, and they are refusing to give me my salary, experience letter, and other wages. Please advise on what steps I should take.
Thanks & Regards,

Hello Mahesh Babariya,
This topic was discussed quite a few times earlier in this Forum. Please use the 'research' option/facility at the top of this page to access the suggestions that most suitably apply to YOUR situation.
You haven't mentioned how long you worked here. Also, what's your experience level - how many years?
And you haven't given any specific reason(s) for the Subject of the Posting/Thread ["Sign Up Service Bond By Lying"]? What makes you think they lied? Please provide details of your statement/version: "improper economic and technical growth". Maybe the Company would have a different viewpoint here?
