Breach of contract for service agreement

hi i joined a company as graduate engineering trainee after one year they gave me a probationary order for six months as a assiant engineer but after 6 months they 
did not give me a confirmation order. During this 6 months of probation they made me to sign a bond for 3 years or get out of the company if i didnt sign it .so i signed  
it before 2 days of going to italy for training for a period of 12days along with 3 of my senior collegues .The bond stated that after the training 
i have to stay in the company for a period of 3 years if i break it i have to pay a sum of 2 lakhs .After the training i served the company for 1.3 years after which i have resigned the company 
due to my medical condition ,i was not able to work in that hazardous enviroment any more my health went bad so i resigned it .Totaly i worked in this company for 2.6 years 
and till now they havent given me a  conformation order as an assistant engineer.They should have given my confirmation ONE year back but they did not .
Now after a month they sent me a lawyer notice which says that i have to pay 2 lacs for training cost and 2 lacs for breaking the bond total of 4 lacs.I did not claim any medical or LTA benifits from the company
during this 2.6 years period and also i was not given PL leave beacause i was in probation. Can this company take a legal action against me 
During that 12 days in italy i wasnt given any training i was only helping my senior in checking whether the machine was according to the purchase order before errection in india 
we were doing only work  . . . PLZ advice me if they can take legal action against me what should i do.
