Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in India
I am 75 yrs old tenant living in kolkata. a new landlord has purchased the property 06 years back but has not issued any letters in terms of the purchase of property as such i am depositing my rent in rent control office . the kmc records clearly states the name of a new landlord but officially both the old and new landlords have not issued any letters from their sides, now the roof and other portion of the building is leaking and getting damaged in case of any incidence who will be held responsible. as far as i know as per law it is compulsory for the persons to inform the tenants but in case it is done intentionally what should i do ?.the building is slowly becoming unfit for living due to non maintenance.please advice what should i do to make the new landlord come in front.

Dear Sir / Madam,
To bring the new landlord to the forefront, you will need to harness and garner the support of all the tenants and jointly decide and agree to conduct, share and bear the total costs of repairs of the property on the basis of the carpet area occupied by the landlord and each of the tenants in the property.
Regards,
