Employement Bond - Employment Letter

here is one discrepancy out here.

As per my offer letter and Appointment letter it says "Service Agreement:

"Post your joining, should you accept any specialized training whether in India or abroad, you will be
required to commit to serve (Company name removed) for a minimum period of 12 months as per the (Company name removed)
policy. You will be required to enter into a Service Agreement, as per (Company name removed)policy on
Training, supported with a Guarantee in the form and manner decided by (Company name removed). You are under
no obligation to accept any training requiring a commitment to serve (Company name removed)on your part.
However, once accepted by you, it will be a binding contract."

As per the above it clearlys say 12 months of bond but on Actual non-judical stamped paper, They have mentioned 24 months.and I signed both Appointment letter(12 months) and actual bond(24 months).But I was under impresion that bond will be for 1 year as we get offer letter first and accept it and second comes Bond.So they should not have made this mistake in my Offer,Appointment and Bond ?

Can they waive off the bond on this ?

or will I have to pay ? Please reply and help me .....

Dear Sachin
if it is on a judical paper you must abide it.if not judical/white paer containing a letter head of institution there is nothing to worry. you must also ask before completion of 2 years if i want to resign how months of resign i had to give. youy can also go further if it is on a white paper.

Hello sachin,
Siva Sai Gopal.Komma is right.
But you should have checked this discrepancy when signing the Acceptance to the Offer letter & the Bond--NOT much later [since that's the impression one gets with your Posting].
All the Best.

• Why and how do you sign papers without reading and understanding them ?? or you put RHT (right hand thumb impression).
• generally there is also a standard line just above dotted line where you sign. ' I have fully read and understood the contents of this documents and I am signing this document in acceptance of all the terms and conditions mentioned above'.

Thing is here...
I read it very well, what I am asking you guys.Since they mentioned 12 months on Offer and Appointment letter but 24 months on Bond.So is there any possibility to negotiate on this as they should have mentioned 24 months on Offer and Appointment letter ?? So It was a mistake from their end...
