    Dear client, I'm sorry to hear about the situation you're facing with the property and the landlord. Based on the information provided, it seems that your father purchased the house in 2003 under the Pagadi system, and he passed away in 2010. Since then, you and your mother have been living in the house. As your mother is the first legal heir, she has the right to claim ownership of the property. Regarding the landlord's request to transfer the name on the rent receipt to your mother's name and asking for a payment of 2 lakh, it's important to understand the specific laws and regulations that apply to your location. In some cases, such transfers may not be legally required, while in others, they might be necessary for legal and documentation purposes. If you are unable to pay the amount requested by the landlord, and they refuse to change the name on the rent receipt, it could potentially lead to legal issues or disputes. To handle this situation, it would be advisable to consult with a local lawyer who specializes in property and tenancy laws. They will be able to review your specific circumstances and provide guidance on the best course of action. In general, it's crucial to ensure that all legal documentation related to the property, including ownership and tenancy agreements, is in order. This can help protect your rights and interests in case of any disputes or development processes.
