    Hi, You need not worry because the law of the land protects senior citizens and added protection will be given because she is a widow. she can approach the nearest police station and file an FIR for mental harassment in particular and cruelty in general under section 498A. If she is unable to do this on her own, ask her to seek assistance in the neighborhood. Thank you.

    1. your mother can file a complaint under the maintenance & welfare of the parents & senior citizen act to evict her son from the house, The Delhi High Court had ruled in 2016 that an adult son had no legal claim on his parents' self-acquired property. “Where the house is a self-acquired house of the parents, a son, whether married or unmarried, has no legal right to live in that house and he can live in that house only at the mercy of his parents up to the time the parents allow” said the order. 2. The Bombay high court (HC) has held that senior citizens tribunals, established under provisions of the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007, can evict abusive children from the resistance of their aged parents even if it is an ancestral property.

    Hi, You and your mother can file a complaint against your brother for mental harassment for property share and can also ask for maintenance. If your mother do not want to transfer the property she can make a will or a gift deed. If you find it helpful, please rate my answer. Thank You

    You can give a police complaint. You can also file case for maintenance from him. your mother can file it. if it was Tamil Nadu you could file case under the elders welfare and maintenance act. if it is available in your state you can do so. otherwise you can file a case for maintenance in the name of your mother. for harassment you can file a seperate police complaint
