If you believe in law you have to go by contratc of leave and licence and finish the liabilty and pay the dues first if any pending thereafter think of your rights and chances

If L & L agreement has expired it is better to vacate the premises if the agrment has not been renewed.
Re: leave&l ; rights-;protection to leasee
The Law is very clear, the possession can be taken only through civil remedies, even the Police have no authorities and jurisdiction to interfere.
In Court, while continuing paying rent, you will be able to defend your possession for 2-5 years time.
In these circumstances, you need to think justified and make the landlady understand your position as well as you should make efforts to pay monthly rent and search for another accomodation.
Legally, the court generally grants amicable time of 1-2 years subject to payment of rent.

Landlady can not take forcible possession.Take assistance of legal cell which shall be situated in district court.
