Need help and reference
Dear All,
My grandfather had leased a shop in about 60 years ago which is now inherited by me. About 25 years back we and some of my neighboring shop owners received a notice from Corporation for road widening which we all took legal route and got a stay order. The said property was then bought by another person 20 years ago, who also has a shop in the vicinity and had received Road widening order. This person now claims that since his shop will go under road widening he wants us to evict the shop. He has also filed an eviction case.
Need advise from you all as to how do I approach this case
That shop is our only source of income. Failing which we will have to come on streets. Whereas the current landlord is very rich and apart from this property he also has several other properties and has a very strong political and underworld connection. Moreover the road widening has not taken place and not sure if it will ever take place.
My question
If the law asks us to evict because my landlord has used his bonafide requirement rights, then can I also buy an already leased property and use the same bonafide right and evict another tenant?
