I want to know does any laws written anywhere which bound the employee to not leave one company and join another ?

well you are bound by the agreement or contract you signed at the time of joining your Earlier employer...so go through your terms of appointment and be very careful while relpying donont be vague but very specific and precise in your reply...

U cannot violate the terms of employment of your erstwhile employer & if it had certain restrictions on future employment, it is binding unless they are unreasonable or illegal.
