Sacchin Sharma
Mumbai
Dear Sir
My name is Sacchin Sharma and I reside in Kalyan-West. I have given numerous complaints to my society for last 5 to 7 years regarding the water leakage from outside the walls of my building. But the Society has turned a deaf ear and nothing was done year after year.
Tired, I got it repaired at my own cost two years back as my wife was pregnant and I did not want to take any chance.
There is another problem too. Two flats above mine are empty and the owners do not keep it properly or maintain.
What action I can initiate against them?
Can I lodge an FIR of mental torture with the local police station?

Cooperative Housing Society is held to be a service provider and for poor service Consumer Courts do listen and give relief by ordering the CHS to take necessary action.
Even damages could be awarded. Proceedings in Consumer Courts are faster as compared to those in Cooperative/ Other Courts.
