Employer refusing to pay my salary

Hello experts
I was working in a startup company where after receiving my 1st month salary my salary was put on hold due to some problems... Gradually the work was also stopped but we were expecting the work to resume but that didn't happen and because of not having much work after 2.5 months of not receiving any salary and being ignored by the employer i decided to resign the company and now he is not ready to pay any salary during final settlement... i have wasted my 2.5 months here and even in my experience letter he mentioned that i left the work 2.5 months earlier only.
kindly help me i don't know what are my rights and how can i proceed.
I'm from Srikakulam (AP) and my employer is from Mumbai ... I cannot travel to mumbai for filing case and fight there.
plz guide me.. thankyou

@ADVOCATE KUNAL SHARMA sir thankyou for your reply
My employer told me as there was not much work in these 2.5 months I'm not going to pay you any wages, but I was waiting for the work to resume and that is reason I didn't left the company at that time, after 2.5 months he started ignoring my calls and messages so i thought it's better to leave the company.
Now he is saying when there was not much work for you why are you asking salary and he also manipulated the dates in my experience letter i left the company in the last week of March but the mentioned i left the company in 1st FEB.
