Legal Question in Workers Comp in Pakistan

Dear Sir(s),

I have applied for a job in Lahore and after interview, I was selected in November 2015. Company HR department sent me a mail that I have been shortlisted for the required position but company will will this position in mid of 2016 i.e June 2016. Since I was interested in that job so I missed one opportunity for the said job even being jobless. But now the company is saying that we have that project in pipeline and as the project comes, they will call me. By saying this they are delaying the process. Now this is almost one year and despite having a clear mail of my selection, they are not calling me. I have called them one hundred time and every time they say that we will call you very soon but we can not give you any time frame. this is not understandable for me anymore. Once they dont have project in hand, why they are conducting interviews and why they are sending emails that I am selected? Now their attitude is unbearable for me? Can you please let me know that what can I do legally against the company. I have a confirmation email from responsible person of the company in which they have confirmed it that I am selected and they will call me in mid of 2016. I have also lost one job opportunity due tp their behaviour like this. Can I claim damages loss or can I force them through court that they hire immediately? or any other remedy?

I will be waiting for your urgent response. Thanks
