Reading: My neighbor in the village keeps his cows and buffaloes so close to my house that they’re constantly bumping against the wall. This has caused serious damage, and the wall is now on the verge of collapsing, putting everyone at risk. I’ve spoken to him several times, but he’s not taking the issue seriously. Should I seek compensation for the damage? Should I approach the police or the court? I’m really worried and need some guidance.

You can seek compensation for the damage caused by your neighbor’s livestock. As the damage is significant and poses a risk, you can approach the police to file a complaint, which may prompt them to intervene and encourage your neighbor to address the situation. You can also consider filing a civil suit in court to seek compensation for the damage and an injunction to prevent further harm.
