I gave my resignation on 10.09.2012 due to my COO suppressing me (he wanted to create his own team). However, on 11.09.2012, at the completion of my 3-month notice period, he did not relieve me as there was no one to look after the plant. He assured me of a salary hike and promotion in the next increment, and I agreed due to some reasons. He pretended to tear a piece of paper as my resignation letter. All these events occurred between me and the COO with no involvement of HR.
After a month had passed, he showed me the resignation letter again and started harassing me to be relieved based on that resignation letter, as I had not mentioned a date. He asked me to put a date as per his desire and relieve me. He forced me to do things I did not want to do. I asked him to return the resignation letter and also informed HR about the situation, but it was in vain.
When I objected on 07.05.2013 to a certain work in my domain, I received a call from HR stating that my resignation period is completed, and I am relieved today. When I saw the letter, it was my old resignation letter.

It was very unfortunate to have learned a lesson the hard way. I would say that the COO is at fault for blackmailing you and using your letter to his advantage. However, the fact remains that he was in a position to do so as you never mentioned a date in the letter. Anyway, what's done is done.
Questions About Your Resignation
Have you signed your resignation letter? What reason did you state in that letter? Is the resignation on plain paper or through an email? Has HR informed you about your relieving through a call, or have they sent you an email or letter? Please provide complete details.
Also, ensure henceforth to include the date on any formal documents you hand over to anyone.
Thank you.

Resignation and Notice Period Concerns
Yogesh, I noticed your resignation letter was handwritten and undated. How about your signature?
From your post, you mentioned: "I gave my resignation on the dated 10.09.2012 due to my COO suppressing me (he wanted to create his own team)... but on the date 11.09.2012, after the completion of my 3-month notice period, he did not relieve me as there was no one to look after the plant." You sent your resignation on the 10th of September. In the next statement, you mentioned you were not relieved on the 11th of September after the completion of your 3-month notice period since there was no one to look after the plant. I am unsure if this is a typing error or a serious oversight.
Secondly, how is it that you gave your resignation only to the COO? Don't you think such matters should also be reported to HR?
Third, because you never kept HR in the loop, I doubt how much of your story would be believed. On the other hand, if you had kept HR in the loop, you could have written a cancellation of resignation on the grounds of negotiation between you and the COO. The reason people are now using dual reporting is to avoid the misuse of one party by the other. I am still doubtful of the actual scenario.
Regards.

Dear Ankita Jee, I had given my resignation on 10.09.2012 to the COO, which he did not forward to HRD and kept it in his drawer. Upon the completion of the 3-month notice period on 11.12.2012, I did not report to my duty as I had completed my resignation period. However, I was called by my boss GMT to meet the COO.
I also reported the matter to HRD verbally. When the COO again presented my resignation, I discussed the issue with HRD. He repeatedly told me that he had not received my resignation.
I did everything possible to save my job except retrieving my resignation as it was not in my possession. I have video clips of the COO, my boss GM Tech, and HRD personnel acknowledging the issues but being unable to help.
I apologize for any inconvenience caused by typing and other issues. I am not mobile typing friendly.

Hello Yogesh,
What do you mean by doing everything to save your job? You resigned and submitted your resignation to the COO. You never felt the need to inquire about the status or clarify things. After three months, when the COO called you and offered an appraisal, you decided to rejoin. Is this what you meant by saying that you did everything to save your job? Because from your post, only so much is clear. I can't deduce what YOU DID to save the job. Sorry to be blunt, but I am unable to understand your post as it is too open to be directed in any direction one wishes to think.

I have done what you suggested today itself, but they told me that executives are not governed by the labor court. They resisted for some time, then they said to change my profile from manager to worker; only then did they agree. The same thing is written in my bond papers.
