Dear Sir / Madam,

Yes, The old Landlord-Tenant pagdi system arrangement prevailed prior to 1985 and has been abolished since then, simply because tenants got away by paying a pittance to the landlord as rent for all the years they have been occupying the premises, and were behaving as though they were owners of tenanted property. You are doing just the same thing of "trying to bake the cake and eat it too" by attempting to challenge any increase in rent by the landlord and adamantly "stay put" in the premises. You will either have to agree to pay monthly lease rentals to the landlord at the prevailing lease charges of property in the surrounding locality, or else you will have to vacate the flat.

Regards,
