Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Owing to the sensitivity of Collector Asheesh Singh, an elderly couple living in Sudama Nagar got the possession of their house back from a tenant.
In the public hearing, a complaint was made before Collector Singh by applicant Vijayalakshmi, wife of Jinesh Kumar Kothari, resident of Sudama Nagar, that for household expenses and medicines etc., she had rented her house to tenant Prateek, son of Bhushan Kumar Saxena on June 28 last year.
Applicant Vijayalakshmi Kothari is suffering from cancer and her husband is a heart patient. Both live alone at their house. Their son Nilesh lives away.
