Need advice: Amazon trying to coerce.

I interviewed for data engineer at Amazon in feb. I was told that my profile has been put on hold because so meone else has been chosen internally. Now recruiter comes up with BI engineer role. Got selected. I didn't say anything because I just wanted to get out of TCS at all costs. Now she's demanding that I must join them on 22 april, which is less than 2 weeks away. Are they trying to back me off? Because the request is unreasonable. They haven't yet released offer letter, salary negotiations haven't taken place. Should I ask for offer letter first? Or ask for early release with TCS? What should my plan of action. Need advice.

Recruiter is asking for my confirmation first. I said I can't commit, I'll have to talk to folks at TCS. And then she hung up

Ask for offer letter first with negotiated compensation and say once you get it, you will resign the same day.

They said take it or leave it. They have another internal candidate being considered for the role. The recruiter even showed me the mail, later.

Ok so that was abt compensation part, you cant negotiate I think. But, without offer letter how will you resign? Do one thing, tell recruiter that you have resigned and now give offer letter.

Ask offer letter. Say how can I talk to people when you are not commuting anything and haven't even given a offer letter.
