Hello. I am a tenant of paghdi system room.
The room is on name of my father. My Uncle is living with my family for a long time now.
All of sudden my landlord started asking us to force my uncle to leave our home and arrange gis accomodation somewhere else. He also claims that it is against the law to have my family member in my home and is threatning us to send a legal notice. He keeps on fighting with us over this issue and now is threatning to damage my vehicle and other personal property. He also keep on saying that according to law my uncle is not part of family and he hence he can not live with us. Only tenant who owns the room and his family stays there and keeps irritating us.
My question is, is there any law that forbid my uncle to stay with our family. If he is harassing our family by means of threatning and unlawful neans than what should i do and how do i proceed to file a complain against him. I have copy of Maharashtra Rent control act 1999 with ne and there is nothing such mentioned like this in the law.
These are the following documents that my uncle have to prove he is been residing with us on this property for long time.
Ration Card
Minority caste certificate
LPG cylinder connection on his name
He do have Adhar card and Pan card but the adress over these documents is different.
Help over this will be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Discuss with local Advocate and file a Suit and obtain a Stay For Eviction. Let the Court decide.

You are fully protected under Maharashtra Rent Act 1999, your uncle can reside with you if he has evidence to prove that he has been residing with your father during his lifetime. You may file a complaint with the police for the harassment of the landlord.

It is advisable to consult a good lawyer with all the relevant documents mentioned by you. And remember, no one can force you to vacate the property except the court order.

Yes, the Landlord cannot take law in his hands to compel your uncle to be evicted.

Record all threats of damage or actual damage being done or done to your life, limbs, property and keep some unshakable witnesses so that irrefutable evidences exist for use at appropriate time in appropriate forum, if the need be.

If you wish you can discuss in person with LCI Experts from your location in Maharashtra e.g; Mr. Hemant Agarwal, Mr. M.V.Gupta, Mr. Kishore Mehta, Mr. Yogen Kakade. They may agree to counsel you.

I agree with experts, consult a local lawyer.
The landlord can not compel you to keep your uncle and his family in the demised premises.
