Claim of damages against former official superior

This query has been posted in the Forum Section couple of days ago. The query is reposted in this Section for more informed response -

I am a retired senior Government Officer. While in service, there had been many instances where I was required to be part of unlawful actions. I had avoided such instructions. In some cases, I had taken action contrary to the instructions. Such actions have been upheld by the Courts.

However, just a couple of months prior to my retirement disciplinary proceeding initiated. Enquiry officer was appointed only after two years when I approached the Tribunal. Enquiry took more than one year. But he did not submit Report. So, another officer was appointed. He also did not complete the proceedings even after two years. Finally, the Tribunal quashed the proceedings for total non-application of mind by the disciplinary authority. I could not get pension, gratuity and other benefits in time because of the pending proceedings.

I wish to proceed against the former superiors including the disciplinary authority and the inquiry officers and claim damages from for them deliberate harassment. Can I file a civil suit in the civil court for the purpose? I do not wish to proceed against the Government.

Additional query: After retirement I am permanently settled in my native place. Much of the instances of harassment, such as change of Inquiry Officer etc., have taken place post-retirement. As such, which civil court has the jurisdiction to entertain the suit - the place I am settled presently or the place of retirement (outside my Home State)

Water seepage

Hi,
I purchased resale flat in Mumbai in the month of Feb 23 and the seller of this flat has purchased flat which exactly below my flat at the same time.
While purchasing, I asked very clearly if the flat have any structural issues but they have not mentioned any such.
Now after 4 months of shifting to this flat they are asking me to fix the issue of water seepage happening from one of the bathroom.
My question is who is responsible for this? Only just I live in above flat is not rational. The same party sold me this flat without disclosing this water seepage issue. I am sure this issue was there at a time of selling the flat but purposefully they hid it.
I believe RERA laws are even applicable for the resale flat and even which are not registered with RERA. Is there any other law which can protect my interest as my stand is genuine? the seller should have disclosed this problem to me at a time of purchase itself.

Need noc from apartment for shop?

We recently bought a shop in an apartment that is sanctioned as a professional office in the building plan. However, a person from the apartment said that you can't run any food-related business in this shop because this area falls under the R1 zone.

But in the Unified Development Control and Promotion Regulation (UDCPR) rule, some food-related activities are allowed in the R1 zone (such as student's mess, pan shop, etc.).

So, if we want to open a student's mess in that professional office, do we need an NOC from the apartment?
