I am the owner of a basement in a residential colony in Delhi. The water connections for the 1st and 2nd floors are pumped through motors installed on the ground floor in the front courtyard of the property. A large amount of water enters my premises every day when the motors start running at 4 a.m. It is evident that there is a broken pipeline in one of the connections, which runs beneath the marble flooring. The flat owners are rude, uncooperative, and are not allowing me to carry out the necessary repairs. Can I proceed with the repair work without facing any legal issues? What legal or practical options are available to resolve this problem?
You have the right to stop water damage to your basement. First, send a legal notice to the flat owners asking for repair permission. If they still refuse, file a complaint with the local police. If needed, approach the civil court to get legal permission to carry out the repair without further obstruction. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
