Full Conversation

I want to raise a complaint against my ex-employer who forced me to resign under the influence of my manager, citing disciplinary action. This was due to personal grudges my manager held against me for filing a complaint with the legal department after an incident at an office party. At the party, the global sales director offered me a drink, which I declined due to my religious beliefs as a non-drinker. My manager, to look cool and degrade my image in front of the top management, made fun of my beliefs, saying I only drink if my God permits. This insulted my religious beliefs, and I filed an internal complaint. However, with the influence of the India Director, no action was taken. Within six months, despite achieving *% of my annual targets, my manager put me on a Performance Improvement Plan and forced me to resign without proper feedback. This has left me in financial crisis and mental harassment. I seek advice on how to get justice for his wrongdoings and damage to my career.
