I received an offer letter for a new position with a new employer. I handed in my resignation to my previous employer, and served out my notice period.
After my last day at my previous company, the new company informed me that they needed to postpone my onboarding for a week due to the Coronavirus lockdown. The lockdown was extended beyond that week so I requested a virtual onboarding, however that did not occur. It's been months and yet they have not provided a Date of Joining, and when questioned they replied saying that they can't give specific joining date and I will have to wait - but nobody knows how long the wait will be.
Can I proceed legally against employer after I get another job?
Is the company liable to compensation as per LAW?
Note: I have accepted offer letter with Date of Joining mentioned in it.
