My tenant has refused to pay the remaining rent after moving into the ground floor of my house. We had a two-year lease agreement with a 3 lakh advance and the remaining 1 lakh due after a month. Now, they are refusing to pay and are even threatening me. I’ve given them two weeks to vacate, but they haven’t moved out. I’m worried about their violent behavior and want to get them out quickly. I’m willing to return the advance payment. My friend studying law suggested filing a police complaint. What should I do to get rid of this tenant as soon as possible?

You should file a police complaint for the threats and failing to vacate after the lease period, and also file an eviction suit in the relevant court. Since you are willing to return the advance, mention this in your complaint and suit, but be aware that you can only claim the remaining rent due.
