need to file a petition by the sr. citizen for her ejection from the house before the civil court. issue notice to her before filing the petition terminating her posession the property as a licensee. due to recent judgement of Supreme court, it may be difficult to evict her under sr. citizen act being in conflict with DV act. sr. citizen can also file petition under DV ACT besides the above said petition.
