A. Dear Client,
Based on the provided information, it seems that your community's bye-laws specify that only the person whose name appears first in the case of joint ownership has the right to vote or stand for election. Since the daughter is not a co-owner and her name does not appear first on the registration, it might be interpreted that she is not eligible based on the existing bye-laws. A Power of Attorney may grant authority to act on behalf of someone else but might not necessarily override ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
In India, the governing law for the control of rent, protection of the rights of landlords and the rights of tenants are governed by the Rent Control Act. A central Rent Control Act was passed by the legislature in 1948. It regulates the rules of letting out a property and ensures that neither the landlords nor the tenants’ rights are exploited by the other. It should also be noted that currently, each state has its own Rent Control Act, though largely similar to each other, they ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
It's important to prioritize your family during difficult times like your father's illness. In dealing with the issue of your belongings at the PG, consider reaching out through alternative channels, such as email or text messages, if the owner is not answering your calls. Clearly express your circumstances and the urgency of retrieving your belongings. If there's still no response, you might want to consult local authorities or seek legal advice on how to proceed. Document all comm ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
Certainly. If you find yourself facing potential eviction, one course of action is to initiate legal proceedings by filing a suit before a Civil Court. In this suit, you can seek an interim injunction against the landlord, aiming to prevent any interference with your right to occupy the premises during the legal proceedings. As the case progresses, you may pursue a decree of permanent injunction, which, if granted, would legally bind the landlord from attempting to evict you without ...ReadMore

A. Dear client,
The terms of the agreement are to be studied. Consult an advocate for the same.
Generally,the landlords deduct the expenses / damages made by the tenant from that security deposit.
As per your agreement if you had the liability to pay for 6 months as a lock period, then you have to pay or else the terms of the tenancy is being violated.
Mutually, you can solve the same keeping aside the agreement, if both the parties agree
