A tenant staying on top floor destroyed my balcony shed, how to recover damages

5 years ago

Dear Sir-I stay in a housing society. A tenant residing on top floor of my building has thrown a water bottle and damaged my balcony shed. When I informed this to the owner, the tenant instead of apologizing, this time threw heavy stones and damaged my shed a second time. Tenant is refusing to pay for the damage.The owner is not taking any action against the tenant. I gave written complaint in society office but they have done nothing. Tenant’s daughter had earlier defecated outside the common lift but society didn’t take any action then too. Our society’s AGM is tomorrow. What action I need to take and against whom to ensure I can recover the damage costs?

A.Please raise the issue at AGM. Request the office bearers to take action. If nothing happens, you can make a complaint before the police and also file a suit for damages. Both are tedious processes involving inconvenience. You need to be prepared for both.
