Eviction Not Maintianable under #Senior Citizens Act
EVICTION OF DAUGHTER-IN-LAW NOT MAINTAINABLE UNDER #SENIOR CITIZENS ACT`2007 The #Senior Citizens Act these days is being resorted to as an eviction tools by in-laws against the Daughter-in-law who is facing matrimonial trouble with her husband. The #Senior Citizens Act`2007 was enacted by the Parliament with the intent to enable the Senior Citizens to seek proper maintenance , to have better medical facilities and institutionalization of a suitable mechanism for protection of life and property of elder persons. But #Senior Citizens Act`2007 was never intended to act as an option for eviction of Daughter-in-law who is facing matrimonial litigation with her husband which I feel is in direct contravention with the other substantial right of the Daughter-in-law. By this Article, We are trying to resolve the impasse created by the introduction of #eviction rules under #Senior Citizens Act which are infact infringing the #Senior Citizens Act itself. Section 22 of #Senior Citizens Act
