Dear sir

For that you have make adjustments ask those people politely that this is my home and I don't want that you cover my parking area or park in front of my gate. Ask them to park the car as such that you also get full space for parking of car also your gate can also be open easily. I case of any emergency. If still they don't listen make a police complaint that they are threatening you for worst consequences if you stop them.

Dear 

Then the only option left with you is write a letter to SP regarding this problem but you have to add in the letter that they are threatening you and harassing you by washing their car in front of your house intentionally and also mention that they have some of the friends in police department also due to which they are confident that your complaint will have no effect on them.

This type of nuisance is defined in Section 268 of the Indian Penal Act.

Section 268 of the Indian Penal Code defines nuisance when the person is guilty of a public nuisance when he does any act which causes injury, danger or annoyance to the public or the people in general who live or occupy the property in the neighborhood.

You can file a complaint against them for nuisance under section 268 of the IPC.

Also, you can file suit for mandatory injunction, with interim relief in a civil court as well.

You can file a police complaint under sec 268 of IPC and file a complaint for Public Nuisance.
It is always best to handle this issue amicably. Usually, the area in front of the house should be not obstructed by anyone but the space doesn't belongs to anyone. It is just the right of way that prevails. Or its best to park your car or two wheeler in front of your house to occupy the place.

Hi,

Police connection does not mean that someone will do wrong with you. You are first suggested to confirm about the ownership of the land and if it belongs to you, you may very well stop anyone from parking your vehicle there.

Legally you cannot object somebody parking their vehicle on the public road.

The road outside your house is not your property hence you cannot fight or quarrel over it with the people.

You may talk to the people and ask them to park their vehicle so that you also get space to park your vehicle.

If ther are nuisance in this regard then you can lodge a criminal complaint with the police otherwise you canot legally stop them from parking their vehicles outside your house on the public road.

If they are creating nuisance by dirtying your atmosphere  which is causing health hazards, then you may lodge a criminal complaint with police and also to the local civic body for making the area untidy due to washing the vehicle on the road.

You can lodge a complaint with the local police against that person for creating nuisance by parking his vehicle in front of your house thereby blocking your way and access to road as well as your ingress and egress, provided if he refused to remove it from there even on your request.

He can no doubt park his vehicle on the road but not objecting your easy access to your house and road.
