Non payment of dues

Dear Sir, I am working in an NGO based organisation where I am also a trustee without holding any office bearing post.This is my only full time job for which I am taking a fixed professional fee every month.The organisation has been irregular in paying my salary/fee in 2015 and 2016 and has not paid me since December 2016 saying the organisation does not have enough funds to pay the trustees. Even after being communicated that I want to leave the organisation,the President is neither releasing my recent pays nor making a full and final settlement.Even after being communicated that I have an ongoing home loan above my other liabilities,they are turning a deaf ear to my repeated requests.My family is in a tight financial corner due to this.Kindly advise on how to proceed on getting a full and final settlement or at least getting a recent salary released. Regards, K Tasha

Please be clear whether you are entitled to salary or professional/ consultancy charges?

As already advised above, for your dues you may send a notice demanding the same to be cleared at the earliest. Failing which you may approach the appropriate legal forum/ authority to recover the same depending on your nature of employment, nature of company and strength, tenure of service, last drawn wages etc.
