my advice you is take relieving letter . if company is ready to pay your dues after 90 days accept it .
taking legal recourse would be more time consuming . part on an amicable note with your employer .

Yes , it is always better to bury the hatchet and move on in your life specially when it is a question of your career.
The suit if you wish to file anayway would be a civil suit for declaration and damages in the place where you worked.

When the employer is ready to give relieving letter and salary arrears after 90 days, what else you want?
If the employer wants to harass you they will not give you relieving letter and salary after you left the company.
