I am a person who cannot afford a lawyer and I am from Malad Evershine Nagar. Pls suggest me where to go as I have a notorius Secretary who has falsely taken signatures to spoil my name. I have already many complaints registered in the Police Station

Dear Ronnie

Ask your friend why he is poor and why can't he become rich by hook or crook? If this is answered you need not worry for your friend . The whole society Page 3 heavily lipsticked socialites will ensure that your friend is looked after. Or else ask your friend to keep quite and leave it to the fate.
