Fired Without Notice After Asking for My Salary – How Can I Get My Dues?

My employer has refused to give me my salary after working onsite for one month. When I raised the issue and asked them to pay my dues, they fired me without any notice. I requested them to clear my dues before I leave the organization, but they behaved rudely and even threatened me. I would highly appreciate any help in getting my salary. Thank you.
