I have ancestral property in a village which include agricuture and residential . I have 6 kanal of land at one place which i have kept to make house . My neighboue has already constructed his ground floor house in his land adjacent to me with no door and window on my side. so till now there was a privacy for me if i was to hace a house . However last week he has costructed second floor and buid windows to my side whcih will effect my privacy and will also lead to unhygenic conditions in my area.He has not agreed to change his plan .
I am very much upset . Under what law i can stop him constructing the windows to my side and maintain my privacy ?

Consult local Municipal law and if it violated its any of the rules and regulations then make complaint to it and if the municipality does not act then file writ in the high court.
If your is not covered by any municipal law then file general civil suit for mandatory injunction on the ground of breach of privacy, obstruction of light and air etc.

To add to what Mr. Barman has already stated, if U R convinced about your case & have found that the building is according to Plan, U have to file a suit making the sanctioning authority a party to the proceeding along with your neighbour.
