How can I protect myself from false allegations as a tenant?
I (a tenant) and my neighbor (flat owner) had a fight a year ago, and she filed a complaint against me. Although the complaint was settled, she has been pressuring our flat owner to evict us. For the last three months, they haven’t paid maintenance unless our flat owner evicts us. Her husband has abused me and made inappropriate comments whenever I go out. Now, they are threatening to file a false atrocity case. I am a working mother and plan to move in 7-8 months. How can I safeguard myself and my family? Is there a provision for non-payment of maintenance in a non-registered society? What are my rights as a tenant? How can I protect myself from false allegations?
As a tenant, your rights include protection against false allegations. You can approach the Rent Control Tribunal or Consumer Court if the landlord is wrongfully evicting you. For unpaid maintenance, consult the Housing Society Act or local authorities, as non-registered societies may not be legally bound to enforce maintenance.
