Sir,
Two neighbors (namely A and B) are living in a village. A is contractor of a PSU and B is an employee of the PSU. B has good and permanent income from the PSU. A has occasional income out of his contractual work only. A is living in an Assam -Type house in his village whereas B is erecting a Two-storey R. C. C. building by the side of A's aforesaid house. The erection of the aforesaid building by B has obstructed light and air to A's house. Moreover, during rain the falling water from the roof of the B's building causes damage to A's aforesaid house.
So, A's right to air and light and right to live peacefully is violated by B's action. A served a legal notice to B on the aforesaid fact. But no reply has been obtained.
Now A seeks legal remedy. How will A get the remedy for exercising his right?
