Water tank leakage in my society; my flat is below the tank. Despite sending several letters to the society's committee members, they didn't repair it for 2 years and eventually, my ceiling collapsed. Please guide me on where to file a case and recommend a good lawyer

You can file a complaint against the society before the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission for deficiency in service and negligence, seeking compensation for ceiling damage and mental harassment. Issue a legal notice first and consult a consumer lawyer.

You can connect me for filing consumer case in case of service deficit by the society. You will have to share the letters served to the society for reference. Kindly take photographs of the collapsed ceiling to be used as evidence.
