I have submitted my resignation from a PSU company. According to the offer letter, I will be governed by the Service Regulations of the organization. As per the Service Regulations, I am required to serve a notice period of 3 months. However, my reporting manager made a note on my Resignation Letter, stating that, as the company had invested time and money in training me, I should serve a notice period of 6 months. Surprisingly, the HR department has also agreed to the manager's note and is now processing my resignation with a notice period of 6 months.
I did not sign any bond before attending any training, and the training was common training attended by all my co-workers. It has already been 1 month since I submitted my resignation, and there has been no update on the status.
If I choose to buy out my remaining notice period, for what period do I have to pay the compensation? Whom should I contact to address this situation and end this harassment?

A reporting manager has no authority to modify the terms of the contract of employment formulated by the PSU, viz., the employer and agreed upon by the employee at the time of appointment. I don't know how HR accepts the recommendation of the concerned manager and processes the paperwork accordingly, unmindful of the basic tenets of a contract of employment. It would be better if you bring the issue to the notice of the CEO. Prior to that, ensure that any amendment was made in this regard to the service regulations subsequently.

You are bound by the terms mentioned in your appointment letter and the rules of the company. Your reporting manager has no authority to alter or modify the terms/rules of the company as per his wish. What your HR understands, it is not a matter but law is the matter.
You can resign and serve the notice as per your terms of appointment. You can take the shelter of courts if any hardship exists upon your exit.
