H1b bench pay not being Paid

Yes I mean paid.Is it a law that all employees who come to US from India on H1B should e paid irrespective of whether they have a project or not?

What do you mean "from India"? All H1B workers irrespective of where they come from must be paid all the time. Yes, thats the law. If you are not being paid, you are out of status already.

He is sending you home so he should supply return ticket for you.

The economy is bad and there are likely no positions for someone with your skills. File with DOL for back wages.
