House in brother's name staying there for 25 years asking to leave


11-Mar-2023 (In Property Law)

I want your help in my family flat matter – I am staying in a house with my In-laws. My In- laws are staying here from more than 25 years as their uncle told them to stay here from starting but the flat is on father in-law’s brother name. And now father in-law’s uncle is no more and flat is about to go under redevelopment. So father in-law’s brother is saying I had given the flat just to stay when your financial condition was not good and not for life time so basically if he takes this flat back we will be homeless.

You cannot stay in this flat as it is in the name of your father in laws brother. The only exception to this is if the flat is an Ancestral property of your father-in-laws father and in that case your father-in-law has a claim over such property.
