Married sister influenced and turned father against us

Ravi Sharma (Querist) 11 August 2024 This query is : Resolved
I lost my mother 5 years ago and shifted my father from home town to my rented house, sold home town house and myself and my younger brother invested whatever savings we had to buy new house in Ghaziabad, took personal loan for furnishing work however the house is registered at father’s name.
Since then, there was too much interference by my married sister in my family matters and she talks to my father on calls for hours about everything happening in my house. I didn’t mind initially as I thought she is giving mental support to retired lonely person.
As living in joint family there always be small things happening between family members which is further reported to my sister by my father, she started provoking him to turn against us. My father started shouting and making scenes of small things.
But now, water is passing over head. Since this property value is increased and I guess my sister has her eye on this property she influenced my father to ask us (My immediate family + My brother’s immediate family) to vacate this house.
Now my father off course influenced and guided my sister has asked us to make a rent agreement and start paying him rent as we live there, I eventually agreed and thought this atleast will give us some peace of mind. I agreed to pay 5000/- every month over all other expenses (his wifi, medicines, grocery). Now he is demanding 15000/- plus expenses. The purpose is to kick us out from the house.
Which obviously we refused as I know that later when my father’s health will deteriorate there will be no one to take care, also we do not have any place to go and neither I am financially strong and invested in this house whatever we had.
Now I want my sister stops influencing my father and stop turning him against us. Seeking help that legally what options do we have?

You cannot legally restrain your sister from talking to your father or misguiding him . Your father is not a child nor a lunatic, hence there is no reason to misguide him nor to dictate terms on him.
Your sister has full rights to talk to her father anything anytime and if your father do not have any objection to this then you cannot do anything about it.
If the property is on your father's name then he is the absolute owner hence you cannot claim any share in it as a right at least not during his lifetime, hence better solve the issues amicably instead of stretching it through legal sources.

You took a loan to buy a house in your father's name, he is the owner of the property and he can do as he wishes. And your sister can talk with your father and you cannot object to it. You shall amicably settle the issues but you cannot take any legal action in the matter.
