Hello,
Yes you can definitely send them a legal notice and thereafter you can file a suit in the civil court in order to claim your amount and also damages for the mental harassment.
Regards
Send a legal notice immediately and seek refund of your security deposit. Look for other accommodation once your security deposit is refunded.
Take help of the female powerline of Bengaluru Police incase you are verbally or physically abused at any time.
u can give police complaint and can file a suit for injunction not to interfere with your possession
1. File police complaint on the grounds of harassment.
2. If police refuse to file FIR then approach a lawyer to take up your complaint to court.
Please do not contemplate suicide for such socio-domestic issues. If the lady is causing intolerable pain a complaint can be lodged before the jurisdictional police in Whitefield. If the police are unwilling to register a complaint a PCR (private complaint) can be filed before the jurisdictional magistrate court. However the issue needs additional consultation before providing a proper solution.
Dear Sir/Madam,
Never think of suicide. The world is very big no person has a right to harass the other neither legally or morally. So also there are persons who can teach a lesson to any person whose profession/habit/business to harass the next door person. Share more details and I can issue a legal notice to them and if police not co-operative there are other agencies which can take the stock of such worsen situation. To say,
the law on nuisance is as follows:

How to File a Harassment Complaint Against a Neighbour
Is Calling Police an Option?
Yes, calling a police if your neighbor harasses you is an option to go with. You have the option to call the police by just dialing the police number 100 and police will come to the place mentioned by you in the phone call. They will come to the spot and ask you the problem and then will take the action against them. And, when they will reach the spot you should be having sufficient proof to prove the harassment by neighbors.
• Harassment Through Nuisance
You may be living in an apartment or in a duplex, often it happens, when you hear loud music sound from the neighbor’s house, you try to ignore that sound for as long as possible but sometimes, such noise may make life difficult. This type of nuisance is defined in Section 268 of the Indian Penal Act.
Section 268 of the Indian Penal Code defines nuisance when the person is guilty of a public nuisance when he does any act which causes injury, danger or annoyance to the public or the people in general who live or occupy the property in the neighborhood.
A common nuisance is not excused on the ground that it causes some convenience or advantage.
If this type of harassment is faced by you from your neighbor then, you can file an application under Section 268 of IPC in the court of magistrate.
Punishment of nuisance is defined in Section 290 of IPC, which is mere Rs. 200 but the court can do much more.
As a matter of fact, calling 100 is most effective as, after a visit or two from the police, such nuisance is likely to stop. In extreme cases, police may even confiscate the instruments that are used to cause nuisance like – loudspeakers or sound boxes, or drones, cameras or such other tools.
Sometimes, police does not intervene despite laws being there as they do not like extra work on their plate or because the other party is very influential. In such cases, you may need to take help of legal experts. We recommend you get in touch with ClikLawyer.com.
• Harassment Through Mischief
When you live in a duplex, you are sharing a common wall. If your neighbor starts construction in that common wall you do not have the right to stop him from constructing because it is his legal right but if during the construction work your property gets damaged, you can ask him to compensate for the loss suffered by you but if your neighbor refuses to pay you the amount then you can file a case under –
1. Section 425 of IPC which states that whoever with intent to cause, or knowing that he is likely to cause, wrongful loss or damage to the public or to any person, causes the destruction of any property, or any such change in any property or in the situation thereof as destroys or diminishes its value or utility, or affects it injuriously, commits mischief.
2. You can file suit for declaration and mandatory injunction in a civil court as well.
3. You can claim damages in the same suit.
if you are facing any problem from a particular person you have to go to police or file a defamation suit against the lady under section 500 of IPC.speak to your land lard and if he can not sort out the issue give him notice of vacation on the ground of issues not sorted out and ask for the refund of security.he can not keep your security that you may recover legally by filing a civil suit with interest, legal charges and compensation through civil or consumer court as you choose.
You should try to gather evidence against the lady who has been threatening you by way of phone recordings, witnesses etc. and also try to gather the people who have been facing similar issues.
Together, you all can file a police complaint against the said lady for criminal intimidation under section 406 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860.
Police fail to take action you can send a written complaint to the senior officials of police under section 154 3 of the CRPC.
However, they also feel to take action you can approach the magistrate under section 156 3 CRPC seeking order for registration of FIR and the police to conduct investigation in this matter.
You can send a legal notice for recovery of your security deposit from your landlord, but I don't think sending a legal notice to the lady who is threatening you would help in your case, but you can still send the concerned lady a cease and desist notice.
If Police doesn't help you, you also have other remedies, which I mentioned above.
Such form of harassment becomes a criminal matter and it is always best to approach the police first. If the local police is not taking any action, then write off a letter narrating your entire ordeal to the area Deputy Commissioner of Police.
If that also doesn't help, then approach the courts.
You can make a complaint with your owner about it who will in turn initiate steps to take action against the unruly member who is reported to behave in a rude and harsh manner with others.
The management committee only can take any action on this on the basis of the complaint by the owner.
The tenants' complaints may not be received properly by the management committee.
