Protection of senior citizens from neighbourly hrassment

A BANERJEE (Querist) 23 June 2021 This query is : Resolved
I am an unmarried senior citizen (76+), living with my nephews. Due to construction work in the adjacent house, the walls of the room in which I sleep has been seeping profusely since my bedroom wall is common with my neighbour's bathroom, as it appears. I am also a patient of serious lung disorder. The contractor/builder who undertook the job of renovation of the adjacent flat did not care to do anything about the continuous seepage, while the occupant/owner being a single lady is unapproachable. I live with and on nebuliser, oxygen and BiPap support, but due to this seepage, I am compelled to sleep in another room which is too inconvenient for me.
What is the way by which I can get justice and compel the owner/occupant to ensure that the continuous seepage stops and I am relieved of spending huge amounts on unsuccessful attempts to stop the menace?

Quick Summary

A senior citizen with a lung condition is experiencing severe wall seepage due to adjacent construction work, impacting their health and comfort. Despite attempts to resolve the issue, the neighbour is unapproachable. Legal experts advise pursuing a civil court injunction to stop the seepage and claim damages. Filing a police complaint and issuing a legal notice are recommended first steps before court action.

As rightly advised by experts above, you have a solution in the civil court only by filing a suit for permanent injunction and an also claim for damages caused by the neighbor in this regards.
You may approach an advocate i the local and first issue a legal notice to the owner/neighbor after which you can resort to legal action through court of law.
