Using Neteller, Skrill, or Paysafe to bet on foreign lotteries from India is currently not explicitly illegal. However, there is no legal framework regulating online gambling in India, making it a grey area. Participating in such activities may be considered illegal under various Indian laws, such as the Public Gambling Act of 1867.

An elderly couple, both over 75 years old, have three sons but no daughters. The eldest two are struggling financially and unable to care for their parents. Their youngest son, who previously provided for them, sadly passed away last year. He had no children of his own but legally adopted a six-year-old child. Before his death, he built a house worth 20 lakhs and had 4 lakhs in savings. Unfortunately, he didn’t leave a will. Now, the elderly parents are being denied access to their son’s house by their daughter-in-law and are living in a rented property. They have no income of their own. They are seeking legal guidance: 1. Can they claim a portion of their son’s property and savings? If so, what steps should they take and what percentage of the property can they request? Which legal sections should they refer to when approaching the court? 2. What are the approximate court fees? As they are impoverished with a BPL card, are they eligible for any court fee waivers? Should they file their case in the court where the property is located?

My father-in-law built a house using his government retirement savings. However, a neighbor is causing trouble, claiming our house blocks his ventilation and the land is unapproved. Even though all the houses in the area are similar, including his own, he filed a case against us. We won the case in lower court, and to be extra careful, filed a caveat. Now, he’s taken the case to a higher court while we’re building the first floor. Is there any chance he can stop our construction despite the caveat? What legal options do we have?

I gave a blank cheque to a private college for a B.A.M.S degree course, with instructions to fill it after 10 days. They immediately used it and the cheque bounced. The college now insists I pay the fees via RTGS/NEFT within 10 days. They admit they wrongly presented the cheque to the bank. I initially transferred Rs. 50,000 to see if the funds would be credited, but the college now claims the seat has been sold to someone else for a higher donation and refuses to admit me. What legal recourse do I have?

My upstairs neighbor’s flat has been leaking into mine for a month. I’ve shown them the damage, and they’ve promised to fix it, but haven’t done anything yet. I’ve sent two notices to the building’s society committee, but they haven’t replied. I’ve even spoken to the chairman directly, but nothing’s happened. I’m at my wit’s end. Should I file a complaint with the Pune Municipal Corporation? What should I do?
