Bengaluru Entrepreneur Asked to Vacate Flat Over Bachelor Status Despite Agreement
Nikhil Sheoran, a Bengaluru entrepreneur, was asked to vacate a flat days after moving in despite paying the security deposit and signing a rental agreement.

Sheoran shared his experience on social media, highlighting challenges single tenants face in Bengaluru's rental market. The incident sparked widespread online discussion about housing discrimination against unmarried individuals in metro cities.
