Sirs,
Wishing all experts a very happy new year. In my rent dispute case, landlord is filing the notice under Transfer of Property act sent by his lawyer to the tenant as a document in the RCOP case. This notice was actually dated 29.4.2010 , post office registration done on 30.4.2010 . But they have corrected the date of notice as 20.4.2010 darkening the 29 with ball point pen and written as 20 (date), only to suit that the landlord was the first one to send the notice to the tenant. I have sent a DD dated 22.4.2010 along with covering letter dated 22.4.2010 which the landlord refused to accept. It is clear from the date that landlord's notice under T.P. Act is nothing but attack on me for sending the DD by rent and creating a proof of tendering the rent well in before the landlord takes any steps. Will this date correction on notice (information under RTI Act from Post Office obtained that the RPAD was booked on 30.4.2010) will help me in proving the case that I bonafidely tendered the rent which the landlord refused to accept and foisted false case against me on willful default in payment of rent for nearly 19 months from August 2008 to February 2010. (I failed to receive the said notice for circumstances which were beyond my control and came to know about the notice only after a long time). Experts may kindly post their suggestions / view which I will have high regards to them.
