Adults who abuse their parents while living in their house can be evicted from the property, the Delhi high court has held.
The court specified that the house need not be self-acquired or owned by the parents. As long as they are in legal possession of the property, abusive sons and daughters can be evicted.
This plugs a gap in a 2007 law that had left it to state governments to frame rules to protect the life and property of senior citizens.
Interpreting provisions of the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act 2007 (MWPSCA), Justice Manmohan ruled that the senior citizens' maintenance tribunal "can issue an eviction order to ensure that senior citizens live peacefully in their house without being forced to accommodate a son who physically assaults and mentally harasses them or threatens to dispossess them."
