First, you should personally visit the concerned officer of the Labour department and narrate the situation. He will guide you on how to proceed. Normally, he will call the employer and appraise the situation. If the employer is not ready to solve the issue, then only a complaint will be registered under the relevant sections of the Industrial Disputes Act (illegal termination) and non-payment of wages (Payment of Wages Act).

Dear Lalith Kumar,
If you are aggrieved by your employer's unfair treatment, you need to visit the Labour Office personally and file a complaint. Yes, you can explain your problem and hand over the letter to them when you go there. Along with the letter, carry a copy of the appointment letter, a photocopy of the identity card, and any other correspondence you had with the employer.
However, before filing a complaint, did you visit the employer and approach them for the disbursement of your salary? You need to have evidence of the correspondence in hard copies. If you do not have credible evidence, then the Labour Officer may not entertain you and may advise you to write an application to the employer.
Thanks,

Please remember the following text:
"There must be a reason for the abrupt termination of an employee after only 2 weeks; otherwise, the company wouldn't have taken such action.
So, Mr. Lalith, please provide more details about the situation.
Also, remember that you should also have evidence of any unfair treatment if you plan to seek assistance from the Labor Department."

Steps to Take After Sudden Termination and Non-Payment of Salary
In the case of sudden termination after two weeks of work and non-payment of salary, here are some key suggestions:
1) Review Your Employment Contract
Check the terms and conditions related to termination and notice period in your employment contract. This will help you understand your legal rights.
2) Contact HR or Employer
Reach out to the HR department or employer to discuss the reasons for termination and inquire about the pending salary. Keep a record of all communications for future reference.
3) Send a Formal Request
If there's no response, send a formal letter or email requesting payment of your salary for the period worked. This serves as documented proof of your attempts to resolve the issue.
4) Visit the Labour Office
If the employer fails to respond, visit your local Labour Department to narrate your situation. They may attempt to mediate between you and the employer to resolve the issue.
5) File a Complaint
If the employer is not willing to pay or resolve the issue, you can formally file a complaint under the Payment of Wages Act for non-payment of wages and under the Industrial Disputes Act for wrongful termination.
6) Seek Legal Advice
If the issue persists, consider seeking legal advice to ensure that your rights are protected and you receive the compensation owed to you.
Document everything, as this will support your case in any formal proceedings.
