well advised            

The eligibiltiy for maternity benfits with reference to the date of expected delivery and date when conceived. The HR (?) is misleading?

What exactly it stands for:

"The HR (?) is misleading?"

@ Megha,

The following lines from your post:

"He later also informed that I can work here how much ever time I can manage or the management may request me to put down my papers."

It has already been posted that:

"Record (audio/visual/witnessed/minuted)  threats of demand of resignation."

Once you have irrefutable record, come back and confirm! 

You may follow the advises rendered by expert Mr. Kumar Doab which is more suitable.
