Neighbour is not allowing re construction of sanitary chamber

Hello , 

I want to reconstruct my buildings sanitary chamber but neighbor is not allowing as he claims that chamber is under his property , what legal actions can i take - his claim is false and the chamber has been here since 40 YEARS ,  he is asking us to close the chamber permanently and put single pipe from building to Manhole , even if i agree for single pipe he is not ready to take responsibility of future blockages if any caused due to single pipe.. as per consultations with different people everyone suggested better to have chamber instead of one single pipe incase of future blockages .
Please advise on this issue .

Have you obtaied the necessary building permit from the municipality/panchayat?

First take permission from municipal authority of your area for reconstruction of your sanitary chamber.

Yes, neighbors can object to the reconstruction of a sanitary chamber if it impacts them or violates any local regulations. They can do so by filing a formal objection with the relevant authorities or through legal channels if the construction is causing a nuisance. However, if you have obtained the necessary permits and the construction is within legal bounds, your neighbor's objections may not be valid.

You can approach the local municipality and submit an application as is required to be submitted as per procedure giving all the details and attach the necessary documents, to sanction the permission to construct the sanitary chamber.
