My Ex Employers have not paid the taxes due to the government but have been mentioning the same in Form 16 as also in the monthly payslips. Is there a recourse in fighting this menace of cheating as done by the Employer.

You need to report the matter to the jurisdictional TDS ward of the Department where your employer company is assessed as far as TDS matters are concerned.
But as you said you received Form 16. There are spaces for displaying the PRNs of quarterly TDS returns filed against which taxes have been deducted. What is written in those spaces/columns ?

as pointed out by Dipjyoti, file complaint with jurisdictional ITO-TDS alongwith proofs to show the apparent cheating being committed by your employer.
Documents should generally include, your salary slips, Form 16, your Form 26AS and if possible, a copy of TDS return filed by your employer.
