How to approach against employer
I am working as a full-time consultant in a private hospital .i was assured a salary of 2.5lakh per month but they never paid my salary on time from start and also in parts. since I was bound by contract I never dared to leave the Institute.But at the end of the contract, they assured me that henceforth they will pay me on time .Also at the end of one year, they owed me an amount of 4.4 lakh which they agreed to pay by 4 posts dated cheque.Out of which one got bounced .Now again I owe an amount of 3.3 lakh with them but since they have not cleared my salary I have refused to resume my duties unless my salary is cleared as I am not bound by any contract. secondly, they are refusing to give salary now saying you were irregular in timings in last one year and also refusing to give form no 16. I have clearly intimated management that I cant give service to the hospital unless my dues are cleared ,because once i attend a patient it makes me duty bound . how should i proceed ??

thanks for the reply, but I made a mistake that I hand over the cheque to the hospital but have recorded from the bank stating the cheque no and it was returned unpaid, but I got to know that you have to file the case in within 15 days and its almost one month. Secondly, they are alleging you are liable to pay an amount of 9 lakhs because you were not on time, as they have paid me my salary in full amount irrespective my duty hours. but they never gave memo in this regard.We only had verbal discussions with management regarding my duty hours and they readily agreed in this regard .
my question how should i proceed personally to be safe legally .my difficuty is If i give resignation without a notice period then I will loose salary what i owe to them . If i Give notice period then I will be forced to work for two more months without surety of getting my salary back .
