Landlord detected cancer and undergone treatment in 2009.
Tenant take the full advantage ,2009'February-June'2009 was the last agreement
when Tenant did not pay a single month (from 2009'February) till 2017.
In 2017 , Land lord file case for eviction.
Now ,Tenant is demanding , he pays regularly by hand , landlord never issued Rent Receipt.
Landlord has not kept old Agreement and Receipt counter part ,as it was
over and there was no problem.Only Latest (2009'February-June'2009) has with him.
Tenant is Claiming counter part of old money receipt .Tenant saying , if Landlord
could not show , counter part of old Rent Receipt counter part , it is proved , that
Land lord never issue money receipts and he is not defaulter of payment.
My question is

2)If Tenant has not paid and has he has no prove of payment , is it enough
to prove Tenant defaulter or land lord has to submit document ?
3)Agreement Says , Tenant has to handover property on june'2009 to Landlord.
Can tenant forcefully stay there years after years ?

go with landlord or tenant ?

The tenant has no legal right to demand counterfoils of rent receipts, he has to show receipts of payment. If the landlord states that payment is not made then the tenant has to show tangible evidences that he has made the payment. The terms and conditions of the registered agreement is applicable. The rent Act of the State of your residence will apply.

If tenant has not paid rent, in that case landlord can take legal action against tenant in court for eviction of tenant.
