UThis is the link of my previous Reddit post that I made about it, I know it’s a bit long but do read it, it might save one of your cousins or siblings from making the same mistake like me
https://www.reddit.com/r/LegalAdviceIndia/s/YrCZPQ6lS7
i went to college the next day, i went to my tnp cell because that is where i got the noc from, i told my TPO, about whatever i was facing and the first thing she told me was, tumhari galti hai ki tumne noc itni lambi leli 6 mahine ki, hum kuch ni kar sakte and agar tumhare hod se approve kar diya hai to isme ab hamari koi responsibility nahi banti, soi told her ki yahi baat aap mere HR ko bhi samjha do, on a call.
so i called him, and gave the phone to my TPO, and the HR btw was very rude with her, like in the beginning he addressed as ma’am, but later on and when the conversation started to heat up and he wasnt understanding my TPO, he started talking rudely to her, like unki baat kaat raha tha, and he came from mam to madam, so my tpo said ki aapko official letterhead pe chahiye na mil jaayega ab aap pareshan mat hoyiye, to now he couldve cut the call, but instead he said ki madam hum pareshan nahi ho rahe hain, ye to rules and etc. so she got angry that he was misbehaving, so now what my tpo said will shock you. she said ki aap samjh rahe hain ki yaha baat ek female ki ho rahi hai, aap log use mentally torture kar rahe hain, and vo behosh ho gayi yaha aake, and she is admit, and vo suicide karne ka keh rahi hai aapki company ka naam leke. i was shocked and very traumatized at that moment.
so now you must be thinking ki she was helping me, but no, when she cut the call, she told me ki sab tumhari galti h mai kuch nahi kar sakti and i was like if you cant help me to baat kyu bigaad rahi ho. then my male TPO called me in his cabin and he asked ki kya dikkat hai and all, so i told him everything and by then i was crying inconsolably, and you cant imagine what that motherfcker said to me, he said ki “sab tumhari galti hai, tumne socha hoga ki 4 mahine formality kar lete hain to apna kaam nikal jaayega, and ab tum chhod rahi ho”, i kept repeating ki sir mujhe vaha mentally torture and harrass kiya jaa raha hai mai nahi cont kar paa rahi and mai formality kyu karungi, i want a job, i joined that company with the intensions of getting a PPO, but that 40 year old man, with a samosa plate in his left hand and cold drink in his right, looked right at me when i was crying like anything and he kept repeating “go back to that place, we cant do anything, go back and complete your time”. i cant express the amount of grief which sits in my heart becoz of this one incident in his cabin, it felt as if i was standing naked in front of someone and crying. well, later on, i went to my hod, he was nice he wrote an application from his side to my hr with ref no and all. and gave it back to me. and i mailed it to the HR
when i was drving back to home, hr called me again, and he said “this is very unethical of you, this will go to corporate affairs and we are blacklisting you from the company”. i was literally standing in the middle of the road, in 46 degrees of heat here.
i came back home, i called him again and asked what were you saying earlier about blacklisting, he said nothing nothing forget about that, and whatever you have submitted you have again submitted by hod, we wanted from tnp cell, so then he said that i have sent a mail to your tnp cell, about you quitting just bring an acknowledgement mail from them.
now this too was again a task, i had to go back to the place which humiliated the heck outta me, next day i went to my college just for telling them to acknowledge the mail that has come from my company (becoz both of my TPOs do not pick up anybody’s call, unka bas chale to president ka bhi call nahi uthaye), and there that woman straight away said to me ki jab vo male tpo aayenge tabhi kaam ho paayega, and she said ki yaha nahi baith sakte bahar wait karo jaake, so i sat outside in 46 degrees of heat waiting for him. 2 hours passed, he didnt come, so i went back and i told her ki mam aap hi phone karke pooch lo ki vo kab aayenge, to she started shouting at me, kehti hai, “mai samjh gayi hun, tum hi ho jo sabko pareshaan kar rahi ho, company vaalo ko bhi and kal se hame bhi pareshaan kar rahi ho”, and i kept crying and saying ki mam mai khud kitna pareshan ho rahi ho aap vo bhi to dekha, i aint idiot to drive 10 kms from my home to colllge in 46 degrees for no reason.
later on after a lot of crying and weeping, kaam ho gaya, they did send an acknowledgement mail. and i called my hr next day on wednesday, telling him that i have done eevrything please send the certificate, he said that im busy in some personal work will do by thurs. i called again on thursday he said that he still couldnt get back from his personal work so now it will happen on monday. i called him on monday, no answer, i drafted a mail, no reply. i called him twice on tuesday, no reply to mail and calls both. then i informed about this all to the PO, and then next day hr called me in morning and said that we will send you the certificate soon. i recieved it on 7th finally.
now, i was casually talking to my other intern colleagues the other day and i got to know some very irritating things, my TL said to my other team mates ki “iski vajah se mujhe bahot sunna pada, and maine aisa expect nahi kiya tha, and isne to deny hi kar diya ki maine ek bhi din ki chhuti nahi li hai and vo sabko bata rahi h ki hum usse 12/1 baje tak kaam karvate the, and she has misused feminism and vo misuse kar rahi hai woman hone ka, and i hate this feminism word and everthing women do these days”, now the truth is maine aisa kuch bhi nahi kaha tha kisi se bhi, he was LYING, STRAIGHT AWAY A LIAR he is. even my TPO didnt say these things. even the head of the company, is saying similar things to my team mates.
end of the story is, i finally came out of that hell hole.
TL;DR: I got stuck in a toxic internship where I was mentally harassed, overworked, and then blamed by both my company and college when I tried to leave early. Instead of helping, my TPOs humiliated me, accused me of being irresponsible, and made the entire process unnecessarily difficult, while the company HR kept threatening me with blacklisting and delaying my certificate. I had to repeatedly travel in extreme heat, cry, beg for basic acknowledgement mails, and deal with constant emotional stress just to get released. Later, I found out the company was spreading false stories about me “misusing feminism” and creating trouble, even though I never made such claims. In the end, I finally got my certificate and escaped that entire situation, but the experience left me deeply traumatized and exhausted.
