Normally all companies whether private or public sector insist on formal relieving order or letter for the simple reason that you are relieved after adhering to their process and there is no adverse career history as far as the past company is concerned. More over this is an indicator that you handed over changes / company assets properly and then you came out in full and final satisfaction of the previous employer. This is no doubt an important document.
Under the very special circumstances you mentioned, One possibility ( which few companies accept) which you need to explore is in lieu of giving an Affidavit legally drafted and prepared stating all facts singed by a Notary Public which can be submitted to the prospective employer.
Advocates know and they will draft in detail and also mention that in your future job if any But it is subject to acceptance by the next public sector and will work only if their internal rules are allowing it. But you can try this in the special circumstances mentioned by you after discussion with the HR of the proposed company. This may or may not work out but one possibility
