Respected Sir/Madam,
After the untimely demise of my father I and my mother were somewhat unacceptable to the other relatives with whom our family was sharing the ancestral house (as a joint family). So, my mother decided to purchase another residential house (with the savings of my late father) where we both can live with peace in mind. Having a limited amount of money and the real estate prices rising upto the sky in West Bengal, hence my mother desperately purchased an already rented residential property on January, 2013 in west Bengal, which was comparatively cheaper than other residential properties.
We then requested the tenant to vacate the premise so that we could live comfortably. But, when the tenant saw that my mother is a widow and I am a student and there is no one to support or back us then he tried to intimidate us, abused us and behaved very rudely with us. We also feel that they could also try to harm us physically.
Please, advise what should I do or what should be my next step ? So that we could be safe and in the way the tenants also gets evicted.
All the above incidents happened verbally and there is no documentary proof of anything.
Please, reply…

issue legal notice to tenant to vacate the house . if he fails to do so file suit for eviction against tenant as you require property for your own use .
