Bombay High Court Upholds Senior Citizen's Right to Evict Son and Daughter-in-Law from Property

The Bombay High Court upheld orders directing a son and daughter-in-law to vacate a flat owned by the 71-year-old mother, affirming a senior citizen's right to live peacefully in her property. The mother alleged harassment, physical assault, and coercion to transfer ownership to the son. The couple contested the eviction, citing their contributions and caregiving role. The Maintenance Tribunal and appellate authority had earlier ruled in favor of the mother under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007.
