1. There are many remedies available to you under the law.

2. You may address a complaint to the municipal commissioner of your city bringing to his knowledge the activity of your neighbour. Generally the corporation adopts a comatose attitude in such cases. So your complaint may not elicit a reply, in which event you can take recourse to RTI by filing an application under RTI to seek information on the status of your complaint. This will surely send jitters in corporation.

3. As a measure of last resort, you may move to High Court and seek the closure of the activity carried out by your neighbour.

First of all you shall complaint about the nuisance to the competent authorities of your Gram Panchayath or Municipal Office whichever may be.

Wait for the response. If no action is taken, there are several legal sources of solving Ur problems for ever. Don't worry.

Also, U can approach any N Go's for help in this issue if U can't face the UP LA maker by Ur selves.
