This query is : Resolved
We stay in a duplex house . We own the first floor and the other party owns the ground floor . The people residing downstairs have blocked our water supply and not allowing us to access the water tank for repairs . The police is of no help as they refuse to take action and the lawyer we have consulted has said that it will take close to 15 days to resolve the issue .. but is there any immediate way our water supply is almost zero since one week and we have no source of water except mineral water bottles for drinking.

Water is an essential requirement for survival, you should have engaged some other local lawyer for immediate relief through court process.

Water and electricity are considered essential supplies and curtailing any one of these is a criminal offence. Police department is duty bound to help you. Higher police authority will definitely help you.

Respected sir , absolutely no one is willing to help us ... The police comes sees the situation takes about other unrelated things with the other party and goes away. We are regularly going to the police station but no one is helping us . The only reasons we get is some higher police officer has gone for training or that we have more important works rather than seeing Ur water problem.
