House owner has 4 daughters no son, so each daughter take 1 year rent and take care of temple then next year other daughter, likewise. we are continuously giving rent for our house without fail every month. We have no another house to live. I am residing with my widow mom and widow sister. In this house electricity is also on my name from 40+ years. Now all 4 managers are decided to sold this premises and they are not agree to give me any place or any compensation money to survive against this. Can anyone suggest what legal action should I take. Plz suggest me..

1. The tenancy does not extinguish even if the tenancy proeprty gets change of hands on slae of it.

2.So if it is sold you become tenant under the new landlord.

3. Only if the present landlord/trust or the new owner/landlord manage to get decree of eviction from court of law you will asked to vacate the premises.

4. Till that time enjoy your sta.

All the best.

Firstly you file a permanent injunction suit against the persons who are forcing you to vacate the property restraining them from forcibly evicting you from the property other than by due process of law.

After obtaining injunction based on the documentary profs and merits available in your side, you can wait and watch the developments. Since it is a trust property they may not be able to vacate or evict you even by filing an eviction suit if they are not authorised to fight on behalf of the rust or if they are not able to prove themselves as genuine members of the trust and they function in the interest of trust.
