Re: is it legal i have to resign though i already signed a contract
You can resign. Our constitution prohibits involuntary servitude. You cannot be forced to work even under the terms of a contract. However, while you are free to resign, you may be liable for damages for breach of contract theoretically. But this depends on your employer if they will pursue the matter. The expense alone may not justify them running after you for damages. But as I said that depends on your employer.
