My neighbor across the street runs a rehab center, but it’s not registered. He houses around 10 young men who work there, and they often harass women passing by with inappropriate comments. Is it even allowed to have a rehab center in a residential area? What steps should I take to address this situation?

Under Indian law, operating an unregistered rehabilitation center is illegal and could be reported to the authorities. Additionally, harassment of women in public is a criminal offense. You should contact the local police and the municipal corporation to report the unregistered center and the harassment.

Hi, I own a house in Bangalore. I got BBMP approval in 2009 to build two floors, but I only constructed the ground floor. Now I want to build the remaining two floors.

Can I start construction without the approval and get an injunction if someone tries to stop me? Thanks for your advice.

We’ve been running our society for a year now. We aimed to expand our reach from the state to the national level, and increased membership from 7 to 12. However, we couldn’t get everyone to sign the necessary documents at the time, so we signed on their behalf. These members haven’t raised any issues yet, but they could in the future. We have affidavits from them stating they agreed to the documents, but the signatures might not match if they decide to take legal action. What can we do to ensure the safety of our society and ourselves?

My brother and I registered a property deed in Sonarpur, South 24 Parganas, West Bengal back in 1994. I’m worried, because he could potentially register the same property again after 1994, changing the terms in his favor, without my knowledge. He could even try to cancel the original deed. I have mobility issues and can’t easily get around, so this makes me anxious. Could you advise me on what I can do to protect my rights?

Respected Sir, We recently acquired a showroom within a complex that also houses commercial spaces. We currently use the showroom as a warehouse and need to unload containers within the complex. Some residents are raising concerns about this practice. The area where we park our containers is designated for commercial use and doesn’t obstruct any residential entrances. Would it be permissible to unload our containers by parking them within the complex?
