Sir, She will have to file a suit for dispossession from this property ...... In the mean time you can oppose her registration from the property in her name .... Stating that he has taken loan from u guys while buying the property .... Oral loan ... Warm Regards Kapil Chandna Adv 9899011450

Sir,How and where can we effectively oppose her registration from the property in her name.Can't we file a title suit for us before she does.Stating that he has taken loan from us won't weaken out case as the purchase amount was just 35000 whereas we were the actual buyer of the property and using it since then.
