According to the bond I’m can not leave the company before 1 year + 3 months training.

And if I want to leave company after completing bond period I need to tell them at least before 1 month.

Before joining the company they tell us to work daily 8 hours.

But after 1 month of joining the company, Boss forcing me to work more then 10 or 12 hours. Sometimes it becomes late nights at 2:00 AM or 3:00AM hours.

Some times Boss tells us to come at work also on weekends.

This affects to my help so I left the company after 5 months of joining.

You dont have to pay any thing. Set down the reasons for the leaving in a plain paper in simple terms and reply to the legal notice. Send a copy of the legal notice and your reply to the local labour inspector by registered post. In case the problem continues, go and meet the labour inspector.
