Sir,
I am not sure whther My below details comes under Civil law/Property law. However, I would like to seek an expert opinion from Bangalore Lawyers.
I have constructed My independent house with stilt (Meant only for parking) in Bangalore in the year 2004 and have been living happily for the past 8 years. My site measurement is 50'X40'. I have left set back area in all the four directions as per by laws. I dont have any problem with any of our neighbours (Adjoining)Recently (About an year before), the building owner (Owner's son) who have come after 8 years from Chennai exactly behind our building has been creating nuisances.
There was a partition wall which was existing (Back side) which I perceive it as common. All we did was extended this common partition by another 2ft and put steel mesh in order to have privacy and security to our building. This was done duly informed to the owner who was in Chennai at that time and had taken their permission. Now after 8 Years he has been raising hue and cry that we have violated all bylaws of building etc. We have left 3ft of set back area between perttion wall to our building structural wall. The set back area is filled with concrete and tiles have been concreted so that no wet surface enters from our building to his side as he pwerceived to be.
- First he came to us stating that the leakages has been found in their area due to the stilt built by us which according to him has been coming out of our building.
- He states that the extension of partion wall and placing of mesh has been damaging his foundation/structures etc.
In addition to this he has made many other absurd allegations like the flower bed which have made on one corner also reason for seepage etc.
I would also like to point one point that the common platform built by him apparently not stright, infact on one side where I am supposed to get 50' length, has been measured and found only 49'6" which I think is a strong point for me to take it up.
As a person he has already created problems with other neghbours in the same road where he stays. It has also reached police authirity.
I would like to have an expert lawyer opinion and also suhggest me an honest lawyer who can handle My case as he has already sent summons to me. There are some more details are there once I get prelimiary reply from you.
Response is appreciated.
Rgds,
