Engage local lawyer and file eviction suit
2) disposal of case would depend upon pendency of cases in small causes court
3) legal fees vary depending upon lawyer engaged by you
The agent or police cannot entertain any complaint in this regard.
You have to issue a notice to the tenant to vacate the house owing to all the reasons stated by you including default in rental payment.
Even if the lawyer's notice is returned undelivered, you can file an eviction suit before the court competent. If the tenant fails to appear or dodges to receive the summons, get an exparte order agaisnt him and file an execution petition to execute the decree along with an application to break open the lock, if necessary with the help of police.
1) What is the process of Suit for Eviction
The process to file an eviction suit will be informed by your advocate which actually involves local procedures and local laws, you may engage an advocate for all such further issues.
2) How much Cost and Time involve in it
The lawyer's fee shall be intimated by him/her, the time taken for disposal depends on the prevailing circumstances.
3) Is this the only option I have?
If your efforts through your own sources to get him vacated fails then you have a last resort which is through court by filing an eviction suit.
