Should maternity leave, as per the provisions of the Maternity Benefit Act, 1961, be counted as part of the bond period?

Yes, maternity leave should be counted as part of the bond period, unless the bond specifically excludes it. The Maternity Benefit Act, 1961, protects the employment rights of women, and time spent on legally approved leave is generally considered part of continuous service.
