Rental agreement issue

I had recently entered into a rental agreement for an agreed deposit and rent amount. Since usually an agreement is for 11 months, i signed the agreement as i was in a hurry. After i reached home and read, he had typed in the agreement that rental agreement is fixed for a period of 11 moths and locking period of 2 years separately. He hadn't specified that to me when discussing terms of agreement and i feel like i have been tricked. What can be done now?


Quick Summary
A tenant has discovered their rental agreement includes a two-year lock-in period, which was not discussed beforehand. They feel misled and are seeking advice on what steps to take. One response suggests negotiating with the landlord, while another points out that an 11-month agreement typically doesn't require registration, but a two-year lock-in might render it void if not properly registered.

Dear sir,

You should have cautiously read and understand the document before signing. Now you have only option to request and discuss the matter with the owner. Therefore always take expert's i.e. Advocate's help.

current agreement is void in eye of law, rent agreement upto 11 month can be made without registration, as you it has 2 year locking peried then this agreement has to registered to be enforceable
