Plz help me to come out of this situation which I am confronting.
Situation:
I have been selected at the post of Credit manager in a bank wherein service agreement bond (copy attached)of Rs 2 Lakhs is executed at the time of training itself.After undergoing training at Lucknow, I was deployed at Kerala. But since this place is quite far away from my residence ( Ghaziabad) i.e. 2900 KMS.,I resigned.I have also given a request letter for change in my posting but went in futile. Now I have got a demand notice of Rs. 3.13 lac.
(Rs .2 Lac plus 3 months notice period amount mentioned in appointment letter)
Now my queries are :
1)Are bonds really enforceable?
2)What should I do i.r.o further notices despatched by bank - Should I reply to them? What are the consequences of non reply of letter.
3)Is there any way to escape from this bond amount?
Payment of indemnity bond
Very Very thanx for all ur replies.
I would like to make clear that we were required to give preferences of posting place out of places given to us where vacancies are available.
I and my few batchmates have been asked of posting preference place 3 times saying that the preferences we gave have been alloted to others and our ranking is lower than those. In this way , I have given each time 10 preferences of place twice and the third time , I have given preferences of 15 places of which 11th preference i.e. Kerala is given to him.
I am attaching a copy of service agreement bond.
