Landlord not accepting rent or cheque, what should I do


12-Mar-2023 (In Landlord/Tenant Law)
I have 2 room in a pagdi system building. Those rooms are in my brother's name. After the landlord came to know it's in my brother's name, he stopped accepting rent, its been 3 years since he hasn't accepted rent. My brother and I both tried giving rent to him personally, also I posted the cheque to him, which he returned back. He refused taking the rent. I want to know what should I do next?

You will have to ask your landlord for the same as to why is he not accepting the rent and if he wishes to change the name into your name you can comply to the same and if not then, don't worry you don't have to pay.
