This query is : Resolved
We (me, my mom and my sister) were living in an rented house in punjab without any agreement at a rent of 3000 since 3 last years payable in cash against rent receipts. Our land lord gave us oral notice but we were unable to vacate the property due to some reasons. So the land lady along with some ladies thrown our all stuff in an truck and forcefully vacated us. Now I want to know what action can we take against them. And what time will be taken in the procedure ? What damages I can recover and will I be able to get the room too?
Also we went to local police but they did nothing. Are they right in this regard? They said its civil matter we can't do anything

land lord asked you to vacate within a month and you did not vacate.
the law is so much tilted in favour of tenant that at times landlord are forced to take extra-legal steps which has been successfully taken by her.

You can approach the Civil Court under Section 6 of the Specific Relief Act. The rent receipts and pleadings are sufficient to substantiate your case.
Police have no powers to interfere in civil disputes.
