“Mr. Singh, we had protected you in the Kachwala case, when the customer filed a suit against the bank”.
“That was an unintentional error on my part, not a premeditated crime”.
“The bank had borne the litigation expenses, and we don’t care about minor details”.
“What if I refuse to take charge of this project”?
“Remember that your career graph is charged to us, and we hold a lien on it”.

One solution is to quit – find another job, or something else to do. One has to take a financial hit at times, but weigh it against the mental torture of dealing with those monsters.
Another is to find something with which you can blackmail them, if you have the power to damage their interest.
