It is nuisance under law of torts and criminal law as well. You neighbour is liable to get sued for damges and compensation. It is your discretion either to sue him for criminal case or civil case.

Although it looks like a civil dispute but it may have colours of criminality. it may be a case of criminal 'mischief depending on the facts. Also, there are powers with the executive under crpc for cases of public nuisance and dangerous activities.
