Chhaja (visor) ownership

(Querist) 22 June 2022 This query is : Resolved 
sir there is a chhaja above ground floor just below first floor.
we stay on 1st floor and have put fiber sheet and jaal on it for our safety for past 10 years as all our windows open up on chhaja side .
the person on ground floor claims that the chhaja belongs to him.
kindly clarify its legal position?
Quick Summary
The discussion revolves around the ownership of a 'chhaja' (a type of visor or balcony projection) situated between the ground and first floors. The resident on the first floor has used it for protection for ten years, but the ground floor resident claims ownership. The consensus suggests that unless specifically allotted to an individual in an agreement, the chhaja is likely considered common property belonging to the society.

To my understanding about your query, the person residing in ground floor said is correct.

Hello,

As per me, if it is not alloted to anyone as per agreement. It will belong to society. The area can be a common area.
