Sir,
I am 27years old, and I am from Karnataka.I was serving as Sub-Inspector (Exe) in Delhi Police since 2/10/2009. And while joining I had submitted an Indemnity Bond of 5years service/capitation charges. Later on I got selected for the post of Probationary officer in JMGS-I, in Union Bank of India, which was in higher pay scale then what i was drawing in Delhi Polioce. I had followed due procedure and had obtained permission to appear for above said exam.
Consequent upon my selection for the above said post, I submitted my Technical Resignation, which was accepted and I was relieved of my duties on 10/7/2012.
Along with my technical resignation letter, I was asked to submitted an indemnity bond to serve my new employer for a period of 5 years, as i had not completed 5 years of service in Delhi Police. This bond was supposed to be sent to my new employer.And I was also asked to give an undertaking on bond paper that i would not opt for lien period condition of 2 years,as I was shifting from Central govt job to Public sector bank. That means I cant revert back to Delhi Police in any case.
But, when i reported at Regional Office of Union bank at Bangalore, the concerned authority didn't accept my relieving letter issued by Delhi Police, stating that they can't entertain transfer of Indemnity Bond from Delhi Police to Union bank. Despite all my requests they said that their rules doesn't allow them to take transfer of Indemnity Bonds from previous employer. They also say that Union bank is not a public sector unit despite the fact that govt owns 57% of the banks shares.They have given me 2 weeks time to get an unconditional relieving letter from Delhi Police.
Sir I have already served Delhi Police for 3years, and i am submitting a separate Indemnity Bond of 3 years minimum service at Union Bank. Thus, I think, there is no point in transferring the indemnity bond served with Delhi Police to Union Bank.
I have been relieved from Delhi Police,without the option of reverting back.And Union Bank is not ready to accept my relieving orders.
I dont want to end up paying capitation charges at Delhi Police to get unconditional relieving letter. I kindly request the EXPERTS to guide me and inform me about the legal options available with me now.
Thanking you,
Santoshkumar J P

Probably the HR Managers of the Union Bank of India are ingorant about their own organisation and do not know that if the Government equity is 51% or more the organisation is necessarily a public sector organisation.
Anyway, if your present posting is advantageous to you, let the bank not accept the bond of the Police department, you may enter a fresh bond of three years to avoid any complication. It is a matter of hardly one year in addition to the previous bond period.
But I would like to advise you not to give up even after joining service with the Bank. Keep the matter alive not only to get the matter decided in your favour by properly representing to the authorities of the Union Bankm but also make them aware of their own ignorance and force them to change their decision and restore benefit of your past bond in cancellation of the new bond of three years.

Sir its not just about the acceptance of Bond,Union Bank is not ready to accept my relieving orders with that conditional clause. They want me to settle all matters with my previous employer,and then join their bank.
But i don't know how far Delhi Police will agree to this because,they cant keep the Indemnity bond with themselves,and now the Union bank is also not ready to accept it.I have written to Delhi Police regarding this problem.
So i kindly request you to suggest me about my future course of action.

As alrady discussed on phone give them in writing and under receipt, either to join you or give the clear reason in writing for not allowing you to join, as may be duly supported by their organisation's rules or the instructions of the Bureau of Public Enterprises.
If they are reluctant to do so, drag them in the court of law for such a monopolistic and arbitrary attitude duly serving them with a strong notice. In the meanwhile, to continue with your fight, withdraw your resignation letter by mentioning the reasons of the Union Bank having not allowed you to join in their organisation with full details, so that you should not remain without any job due to arbitrary policies of the bank.
