First of all, if you expect someone to reproduce your problem make sure that the input you provide can actually be run. Your leap script has filenames in uppercase while what you have attached is in lower case, frcmod files are missing etc. Please test this before you send files and please also pack this up into a single archive file.

I see Cl1 and Cl2 as atoms 8 and 9. But this is nor really relevant, you are not using this for simulation, are you? What do your _topology_ files contain i.e. the files you name as *.top? Check if they have the right GAFF atom types.

And again, your PDB file does not contain connectivity information. Whatever your visualisation program shows has been computed and may not be the same as in your _topology_ file. So try e.g. vmd loading the _topology_ file in connection with the crd or pdb file and see where the bonds are.

Finally, have you considered modelling your second ligand with GLYCAM?

Dears Sir,

I attached the "lig.mol2: file which contains two chlorine atom. While
running tleap "lig.mol2" was combined with another ligand "lig2.mol2".

After the preparation of complex (lig. mol2 and lig2.mol2), the chlorine
atoms are converted into carbon and the bonds between chlorine and carbon
are broken

I did not find the chlorine atoms in the text file of complex:
"com_solvated.pdb"

I checked with different tools for visualization, the problems remains the
same

I also attached the files of (i) lig.mol2 (ii) lig2.mol2 (iii)
com_solvated.pdb (complex: lig.mol2 and lig2.mol2) and (iv) the script for
tleap (tleap.all) for your kind attention

Can you please suggest me why the chlorine atoms are not intact after the
preparation of complex using tleap

Thanks & regards
