If there is a clause / condition stipulated in the "Rent agreement" the landlord can not compel you to stay for entire period of tenancy. Issue proper legal notice 4 months before intended vacation of the property.

However, the landlord can not stop water, electricity etc. that is your fundamental right. If s/he is or has stopped approach appropriate court of jurisdiction through a local prudent lawyer.

However, if you are located in Delhi/NCR and feel so, may contact me (on appointment) at:
