Under Indian law, there is no legal basis to take action against your boyfriend for not marrying you. You were in a consensual relationship, and there is no legal obligation to marry someone after a period of time or physical intimacy.

The company promised to pay me a travel allowance and my salary through post-dated cheques. However, when the cheque matured, it bounced.
