Sir, First of all give him notice of 15 days to vacate the premises. In the notice clearly mention that you are terminating the tenancy. If he doesn't vacate the premises within 15 days from the service of the notice then you can file the suit for eviction in the Civil Court.

No other option except to take legal action. File case for eviction and enhancement, both. Rest your counsel will make out your case. better contact a lawyer because notice is also to be given. So it done by lawyer it will be legally better.
