You can file a case against him approaching nearest assistant commissioner praying to award compensation, based on your situation the maintenance will be fixed and direct your concerned son to pay , approach advocate before proceeding and know the detail procedure

Dear Sir, Under the provisions of Senior Citizens Act both the sons have to contribute towards your maintenance and health issues. File an application before Assistant Commissioner (Revenue) Kandaya Bhavan, Bengaluru against your son who is not paying any maintenance. Thus, you will get maintenance.

This can be challenged and may be prayed for before the senior citizen tribunal. It is held in several cases that looking after the parents is the responsibility and liability of the children. Further, facts need to be analysed.
