My husband passed away recently, and our landlord had us sign a document saying the flat is now mine. However, he’s now saying I have to leave in five years. I’ve been paying rent regularly. What are my rights?
Best Answer
Under Indian law, the landlord’s agreement to transfer the flat to you upon your husband’s death might not be legally binding without a formal transfer of ownership. The five-year notice is likely an attempt to evict you. You should consult a lawyer to understand your legal rights and explore options like challenging the eviction notice or seeking a legal transfer of ownership.
