'Hogele', which he called you, in Kannada means 'get lost'. When judged in the backdrop of the meaning which both the terms i.e ''Naayinanmagane'' and ''Hogele'' carry in the ordinary parlance, it is clear that the expression used by you is offensive. As a corollary thereto, he can prosecute you for defamation. If he files a complaint you will have to contest the case on merits. So the answer to your question ''Is there any law to punish me for scolding him angrily.'' is Yes. You did not scold him, you abused him.

As regards the filth he creates on the road you may apply to court for injunction.

1. You have abused him for which you can be prosecuted by him,

2. However, it will be difficult for him to prove your offence,

3. For his washing of car, you can lodge a police complaint for causing nuisance and harassing you.

1) i dont think the dispute will land in court . your neighbour will not waste his time in running around courts and spend money on legal fees for simple spat .

2) go to your neighbour with a box of sweets and apologise for your behaviour .

3) request him to take precautions while washing the car .

4) if your neighbour lodges police complaint deny that you used any abusive language .

you can request him to take precautions while washing the car as the puddle created by washing car creates a puddle in the road and is a breeding ground for mosquitoes . you can lodge police complaint if you so desire

Thank you for your appreciation.

1) next time record your conversation with your neighbour when you have a public spat .

2) install CCTV cameras on your porch so that when he washes the car and creates puddles of water you can use it as evidence in case of disputes .

3) it is better to amicably resolve the issue by apologising for your behaviour . if you are humble in your approach it will not further strain your relations with your neighbour

you can raise this issue to show that your neighbour is habitual trouble maker . however police may ignore it as it is not relevant to present proceedings .

1. You can certainly raise the said issue,

2. Start collecting evidence & witness in support of it.

thanks for your appreciation . do install cameras as advised to avoid further problems in future

1. You cannot raise the issue of your neighbour abusing your tenants. If your tenant is abused then he shall have to bring legal action against the neighbour. A person who is being abused by another, suffers a personal injury in his right. As such, he alone has the right to proceed against the abuser in accordance with the law of land.

2. The efficacious remedy for you is to apply to court for restraining him from making the road dirty.
