Father gave property on rent tenant died successor not ready to vacate


05-Jan-2023 (In Property Law)
Hi, my father had given a property for rent to a person for running a commercial shop about 30 years ago. Both my father and the tenant had passed away. Now I want that property for personal purpose, however the successors of the deceased tenant don't want to move out. In fact they are claiming its their property now as they have been using it for such long term(they said this is as per Indian law!). I would like to know if it is true? How would I regain my property? They haven't paid rent for last 5/6 years

No it’s no true little knowledge about law is very harmful than not knowing law at all. In your case it applies are you sure he is not paying rent go to the rent controller of your locality and find out... n if he is not paying rent and you have registered deed your case is strong and so he can be vacated... contact us for further consultation through lawrato...

Respected Madam/ Sir.
I read your matter very carefully and I like to suggest you to file both criminal and civil case and claim for your legal rights.
And please made clear that if there is any agreement between the landlord & Tenant?
For further progress please contact.
