Though courts of law is there to solve the problem but considering the time it would take the verdict , your purpose would not be solved.
You better have to cajole your organisation to give the relieving leter. You have no other option. Legal recourse can not give you the time bound result unless the organisation is a public company.

If you have folowed the terms of resignation, the previous employer ought to issue the relieving letter.

Convince the prospective employer, that you have followed the terms of resignation, and yet the management is not giving relieving letter. They will understand the situation. Because it is normal habit of the employers not to issue relieving letter.

Agree with the experts.
disclose all the facts as it is to the new employer.

you can send a legal notice to your present employer asking for your relieving letter. But, ensure that you have followed the terms and conditions of the apoointment letter while resigning.
