Reading: My company asked me to sign a 15-month bond after just 4 months of working there. I chose to resign instead, but they haven’t responded to my resignation email and even blocked my access to work systems. Now, they’re claiming I’m absconding and refusing to pay my salary or release my documents. What can I do to get my dues?

Under Indian law, a 15-month bond after only 4 months of employment is likely unenforceable. You have the right to resign, and your employer’s actions are illegal. You can file a complaint with the Labour Department or initiate legal proceedings to recover your dues and get your documents released.
