Serve a legal notice through a lawyer and thereafter follow the guidelines of your lawyer.

Do I have to approach a lawyer only in the city where the employer organization is located or I can hire anywhere in India ?
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 11 February 2020
You can hire any lawyer from any corner of India but money consideration should be taken care of by you while doing so.

It is advisable to consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for professional guidance and necessary proceeding.

You have tendered the resignation, even though the employment conditions states that you may have to serve the full notice period, the employer can waive the notice period and relief you immediately also.
In that situation you may not be entitled to any pay or allowances for the period not worked.

Thanks sir - I do agree with most of what you wrote However please note the below words as these exactly appear on the employee's appointment letter: "At the time of voluntary separation from Company, you will be required to serve 90 days’ notice period" Does this mean the employer should consider early relieving only if the employee asks for it and not force it on the employee

It implies that employer can consider but ultimate prerogative of the employer.
