My fellow tenants are threating to kill me

 

Hello Respected Members,

I need urgent help. My family lives in an apartment with 7 other tenants and unfortunately am the president of the flat association, for the last one week we had a maintenance issues with regards to

Water supply. I told them that I don’t have the time to look into the issue, they can call the plumber on their own and resolve the problem and I will sign the cheque for payment. Today morning one of the tenant stopped me while going to office and said that i need to personally be present when the

Plumbing work is carried out, I told that I have a stiff deadline to meet in the office ( as I work in the IT industry) I can’t participate in the works on this all the fellow tenants started abusing me and started giving death threats if I don’t resolve the issue as soon as possible. The problem is I belong to a minority caste and all other people are Brahmins with big money power and political connections.

Please help me how to protect myself and my family from these goondas.

Thanks

Respected Rajiv Sir,

Thanks for your response; I will follow your instructions,

 

I am sorry to have used the “Caste” word. I have never used my community status before. But the thing is we have been staying in the apartment for the last 7 years and I became president 3 yrs back and that too on the request of these very same tenants who said to me that all I have to do is take care of the financial matter (cheque signing) and all other maintenance activities will be taken care of by them, so I agreed on it. Even last month we had a big maintenance issue with the motor in which I participated for 3 straight days along with other tenants. But now they say that I was not giving permission for the plumbing work, I don’t understand who I am I to give permission to carry out the work, the entire building belongs to each and every tenants who stays in the building  and they are equally responsibe for the up keeping of the building.They just can’t blame me and threaten me for not  solving the issue.

Thanks
