Remedy if Ancestral house being leased by sister without knowledge


03-Mar-2023 (In Property Law)
My father house is now being leased for 2.75 lakhs by sister without my consent. A fake document that I have agreed to it has been prepared but they are not showing me the document as well. What should I do? The money was spent by her and when the tenant is vacating they are asking me to pay it back or sell the house. I am not willing to. Please advice.

Ask your tenant that on what basis he/she wants to repay his lease amount? Get a copy of lease deed if any.
First thing you have to obtain ownership of property by way of partition deed or suit for partition.

From your query it is not clear who are the legal heirs to the property of your father . In any case both you and your sister has got equal rights and if you do not return the money the tenant will not leave . After he vacates go for a partition deed.

You have to legally lodge a police complaint against your sister for forging a document and sign without your knowledge. The tenant will be having a copy of the lease deed, with that you can lodge a complaint against your sister and sort it out legally.
