Landlord of rented flat giving back old notes

i live in a rented a flat in navi mumbai for the last 6 months. Now the flat owner told us that he will give us 40k old notes and wanted us to give him a cheque instead and said that we have to submit the old notes in our bank account. I and my roomates denied doing any such thing fearing that it could be his black money. Now he said that we should empty his flat and he will return the deposit in old notes only as we had given him the deposit by cash. But we gave the deposit in july when these notes were still in use. NOw after demonetisation he is doing this to us. What should we do? 

please help us sir. We are in grave trouble. Where will we go and we also dont have that much money to go to a new flat

File a police complaint in written and get the diary no. Mention everything in the complaint. It is illegal now to transact in old currency and no one can force you to. He is trying to take advantage of your innocence. Dont get duped.

ok thank u sir. But will the police there help us or the landlord, who is a localite. 

i also wanted to knw what else can we do as students to solve this problem

Why should police not?? and further if you have the written complaint it is only for your help later on if the matter excalates. Well being a student you may then call your parents to your rescue.!!

THIS IS A SMALL AMOUNT AND CAN NOT BE BLACK MONEY. JUST OPEN AN ACCOUNT IN LOCAL POST OFFICE WHICH NEED MINIMUM DOCUMENTS AND DEPOSIT THE MONEY.

Since you are a student, then probably you have NO income.

All funds are probably sent by parents.

Try thru Student Unions and have him agree with you.

thank you sir
