A tenant cannot claim ownership of the house however long may be his period of residence in the tenanted premises.

The tenant cannot claim the ownership. Similarly, a tenant cannot deny the title. However, it is difficult to get the decree of eviction against the tenant, if there are no statutory grounds available with you. So tolerate. Or do as directed by the tenant to compromise and get him evicted.
