I paid an advance for a flat but the builder hasn’t given me the allotment letter even after a year. They now want all original documents for a cheque. Is it safe to give them the originals? What if the cheque bounces? Can I file a case with just copies of the documents?

It’s not safe to give original documents. You should demand an allotment letter first. If the cheque bounces, you can file a case with copies of documents, but originals will strengthen your case.

Previous Article I’ve raised a complaint with the Residents’ Welfare Association (RWA) about our society’s Management Committee (MC) giving one of its flats to an employee. The RWA has ordered the employee to vacate the flat within a month, but I’m unsure if they’ll comply. What should I do next, and who should I approach? Additionally, the MC refused to charge this employee common service charges, even though he benefits from facilities like other residents. They claim the charges don’t apply to society flats, but they are collecting a small rent from him. Is there any way to ensure he contributes fairly?
