My family and I have been living in our flat for over two decades, ever since my father was allotted this plot by the Mathura Development Authority. We’ve been trying to buy the plot for years, but the MDA kept delaying the process and wouldn’t disclose the price. When they finally revealed the rate, it was much higher than expected. Now they’re saying we can only get the plot through an auction, which means we’d have to move out. Is there any chance we can acquire the plot without going through an auction and staying in our home?

Based on Indian laws, you may have a strong case for acquiring the plot without an auction. Your family’s long-term occupancy and the MDA’s delay in providing a price could be considered grounds for challenging the auction requirement. You should consult a lawyer specializing in property law to explore your legal options and potential remedies.

My father, a respected Sikh gentleman, passed away at the age of 96 leaving behind an unregistered will. He divided his self-acquired land and house equally between my brother and me. He also gave our two sisters twenty lakhs each, but no share in the property. He wished for my mother, who is 93 years old, to stay in the house with us, her sons, and be cared for equally. However, when we tried to register the property, our sisters objected, claiming they should receive equal shares, including my mother. My mother strongly disagrees with this claim. What legal advice can you offer in this situation?

My family and I used to live together, but things became difficult, so we decided to separate three years ago. We agreed that they would contribute financially, and I left the house. Now, they’re pressuring me to sell the house, claiming it’s a three-way split: me, my father, and my brother. My father says their business suffered a loss, forcing them to sell gold to save it. He blames me for the loss and demands his share. My brother wants his portion to restart his business. I’m deeply troubled and unsure how to proceed.

My grandfather gifted our family land to my brother and me in his will, written in 1981. Sadly, he passed away in 1983. My brother, who remained unmarried, passed away in 2008, leaving me as the sole inheritor. In 2016, my sister, who is married, came to live with me, claiming financial difficulties. I welcomed her into my home, unaware of her true intentions. After three months, she began demanding a share of the property. I refused, as the will clearly states I am the sole inheritor. Now, she has filed complaints with the local police, senior city officials, and even the Chief Minister’s office. My construction work has been halted, and my tenants are being harassed. I’m at my wit’s end, what can I do?
