Hi, my cousin left his company as he got an opportunity in a good MNC. He served the full notice period; even then, they are not providing him with a relieving letter. His manager threatened him that he would ruin his career. Now, my cousin has left the company without taking a relieving letter and joined a new one. However, the new employer also wants a relieving letter from the previous one. My cousin asked for some time from the new employer. Now, please suggest what he should do to get the relieving letter, or if there is anything else that can be used as a replacement for the relieving letter to provide to the new employer. Please help.

You can file a case against the company manager if the notice period is served in good faith. You can also register a police case for threatening against the manager. A relieving letter will be received within a few days.
Hope this is okay for you.

Thank you for the suggestion, Sunil Sir. However, it may not be possible if a relieving letter is urgently needed, as filing a case and clearing it takes a considerable amount of time. Please inform us if there is an alternative way to obtain the letter.

Here are some options:
1. Hand over all documents from the earlier company, including the last payslip.
2. Inform the current employer in writing about the problems created by the previous employer, providing all the facts and details.
3. Prepare an affidavit stating the facts and submit it to the current employer.
4. If the victim knows a senior management person from the last company, they can communicate how they are being harassed for their release and how the company's image is being tarnished.
5. Utilize connections from colleagues at the previous company to assist the victim.
6. Have a letter sent by parents of your cousin or another senior family representative via registered mail to the manager appealing for the cousin's release.
In conclusion, maintaining continuous communication with both employers is essential to resolving the issue. If necessary, resorting to strong measures such as "dand" (from "sam, dam, danda & bhed") may be considered.
