Tenant not vacating house, damaging my household stuff kept in one room

Dear Sir,

Even though you have already given verbal and written notice, the legally safe route is to file an eviction petition before the competent Rent Tribunal/Civil Court. Grounds can include expiry of tenancy, bona fide requirement (since you intend to shift there), and misuse of the premises. Courts take a serious view when a tenant refuses to vacate after due notice, especially when the owner genuinely needs the property for personal use.

The tenant’s conduct—refusing entry, using abusive language, and preventing you from accessing your belongings—can attract criminal liability. You can file a police complaint for offences such as criminal intimidation, wrongful restraint, and mischief under the Indian Penal Code. If your items have been damaged or removed, that strengthens your case further. The police may intervene to ensure you can at least access your belongings.

Dear Client,
You cannot forcibly evict the tenant even if notice has been given. His refusal to vacate and preventing access amounts to unlawful occupation and interference with your property rights.
You should immediately send a legal notice and file an eviction suit before the appropriate court along with a claim for possession and damages for use and occupation. You can also seek an injunction to restrain him from damaging or interfering with your belongings and access.
For abusive behavior and loss of your items, you may file a police complaint for criminal intimidation and misappropriation. Compensation can also be claimed in civil proceedings.
Please consult a local advocate for proper legal action and eviction proceedings.
