Transfer of rent receipt in pagdi system

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 16 March 2018 This query is : Resolved 
Respected sir,
I am 72 year old citizen of India residing in Mumbai since birth. I had purchased an apartment in byculla 34 years ago under the pagdi system which is also my current residential address.During the time when the apartment was purchased I was working in foreign country so my elder brother made a house rent receipt under two names his own name and my name.My main contention is the apartment has been occupied by my family members from the date of purchase and house rent is also paid by us for last thirty years and my elder brother has not been residing at this apartment for the past twenty years also his name is not present in the ration card also his Aadhar card indicates a that he has been residing in some other place.My elder brother's children have also submitted an NOC which states that they have no rights in this house.
My query is at the present moment my elder brother is not cooperating with me nor is willing to give me NOC to remove his name from the rent receipt.Kindly suggest me any legal remedy so that the rent receipt has only my name and not my elder brother.

The name on the rent receipt can be amended ONLY with the consent of the landlord and your elder brother. As per the existing Rent Act 1999 of Maharashtra, the tenant and the landlord have to stamp, execute and register a tenancy agreement for any change in tenancy.
