Senior Parents are not taking care by 3 among 4 Sons
2 months ago
Please advice how this can be acted as per Laws according to Senior Citizens Welfare. What petition or complaints can be raised against those irresponsible three sons.
A.Dear Client,
In the given situation, your aged parents have several legal remedies to address the distress caused by their sons/daughter-in-law. They can file a complaint under the Domestic Violence Act, 2005, and submit an application under Section 5 of the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents & Sr. Citizens Act, 2007. This application would be presented before the maintenance tribunal, headed by the SDM/DM, detailing the harassment and humiliation faced by your parents. The tribunal, after notifying the concerned parties and providing an opportunity for a hearing, will conduct an inquiry to determine the maintenance amount. Based on the merits of the claim, an order for maintenance, up to Rs.10,000/-, payable by the errant children or relatives, can be issued. The tribunal may also order eviction of the erring children/relatives from the property owned by the Sr. Citizens/Parents. Additionally, the Maintenance Tribunal, under Sec.23 of the Act, has the authority to cancel a deed of gift executed in favor of children/relatives who fail to provide maintenance to their aged parents/Sr. Citizens.
This forum offers a cost-effective and straightforward means to resolve disputes, specifically designed to protect the safety and security of Sr. Citizens facing harassment and abuse in their later years. No advocate representation is allowed in the proceedings. Furthermore, an Elder Help Line (No.14567) provided by the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment offers assistance to Sr. Citizens for various issues, including health and wealth crises. Your parents may contact this helpline to seek resolution to the matter.
