Sir/Madam,
I have a situation. My house in India which my parents were staying is currently deserted (from past 1 year). Now I want either my parent to be back to my house or if they are not interested, I like take back my house.
There are 2 parts to this (a) taking back my house (b) Will my parents try for CRPC 125 (maintenance). How to handle both these issues?
1. I am one of the two children to my parents.
2. I am the eldest son and staying in US from past 11 years.
3. My younger brother is in India.
4. Both of us are financially doing OK (not bad, able to run our families without issues).
5. In past 17 years ( 6 years while in India btw 1995-2000. 11 years from 2000 till date), I have spent close to 40 lakhs in following ways on them ( I have everything documented) -
(a) Depositing money to my parents account - around 20 lakhs,
(b) Taking care food and other utilities,
(c) Providing my house to them for stay,
(d) 4 trips to US, 1 trip to Singapore.
6. If I had to rent my house in India now, it would fetch around Rs 17,000.00 /- per month.
7. Still I continue paying all the utilities and property tax of my house without a miss. These utilities + property tax can be averaged to Rs 1500.00 /- to Rs. 2000.00/- per month.
8. Both of my parents are very conniving. They are seasoned con-artists.
9. In my last trip to India - March 2010, they performed a ploy , created a family fight. 2-3 months later, while I came back to US, they have gone to Human rights claiming I pushed my mommy down in that fight which was big surprise for us. Looks like they have filed fake Human rights complaint.
10. Looks like they have also created some fake doctor certificate claiming she was physically hurt.
11. The basic intend of this fake human rights report is to trouble me with a law suit if I make another visit to India.
12. In December 2010, When once I found out that they are doing all these crook things against me, I just stopped my monetary contribution, but still my contributions to them is house stay - which could fetch rent of Rs 17,000.00 /- per month + Utilities Rs 1,500.00/- minimum per month = total Rs 19,500.00/- per month.
13. One month later, in January 2011, I am getting an email from my dad saying he is penniless, he is nothing more than a beggar. Highly impossible, my contribution to them in these 17 years is substantial. I know they were putting most of that money on gold. If my calculations are correct, they should have saved amount much more than Rs 40 Lakhs. Other than that , they had another house of their own which they were initially renting, but later in 2004 sold it for good amount - 20+ lakhs.
14. I didn't bother, I have gone through too much of suffering from these people all these years. Enough is enough.
15. In March 2011, for no reason, they move out of my house. Just sent me an email with one-liner saying they vacated the house.
16. They didn't give me the house keys (original).
17. I only have the duplicate key that I made while I initially came to US (11 years back).
18. If I try to call them by phone, they don't respond.
19. If I email them on original house keys, they don't respond.
20. My younger brother is part of this ploy.
21. My other relatives are afraid to help me due to these people's weird/arrogant behavior.
22. My Parents are unsatiable. They don't have that satisfaction organ. As per my dad, my contributions to them all these years is peanuts for them.
23. From past 3-4years, they were pressurizing me to give them a lump sum of Rs. 10 - 15 lakhs. Where can I go :-) I have my wife and 4 small kids to take care.
24, My brother was a freelancer and later, now he owns an Institute. I am pretty much sure that he would have reported very less earnings while filing IT. And my parents may show that my money was used to take care of my brother's family.
25. House is only in MY name.
Please advise me on what I should do? I am afraid to go to India. They will come with all sorts of fake allegations over me.
My house has been reduced to a very shabby state. My neighbors and relatives there in India are complaining about it to me.
If I use my duplicate key to open and clean my house through my in-laws, these people may book my in-laws for tress passing.
I really don't want to beg these people anymore to come back to my house. They will again create similar scenes.
Well, If they provide a legal statement saying they have no more means to live, then I will allow them, but they should maintain my house clean.
I am thinking of using a Lawyer to send notice to them to legally handover the house. At the same time I want to teach these people a lesson.
Also, these people may take me to court saying I failed to take care of them. My dad is 67 years old. I am afraid to touch the house since he wants me to do that so that I can be troubled with CRPC 125 (maintenance).
How to handle this situation?
