I am looking for a lawyer with proven experience in Consumer Commission litigation against automobile manufacturers/dealerships, preferably someone who has handled cases against MG, Tata, Hyundai, Mahindra, Kia, etc.

Brief facts:

* Purchased a new MG Windsor EV Pro in November 2025.

* Factory-fitted dashcam supplied was defective from Day 1 despite repeated complaints.

* Vehicle suffered multiple scratches, dents and interior damage while at the authorised service centre.

* Workshop chemicals also damaged the interior plastic trims.

* Repeated assurances were given for months but issues remained unresolved.

* RC was significantly delayed, and I am pursuing compensation for the financial loss I suffered as a result.

* Multiple emails, photographs, videos, service records and documentary evidence are available.

* Seeking compensation for deficiency in service, vehicle damage, defective product, financial loss, mental harassment and litigation costs.

I am not looking for someone who merely sends a legal notice. I need an advocate who regularly appears before the Consumer Commission and is comfortable handling automobile consumer disputes from start to finish.

If anyone has personal experience or can recommend a competent lawyer in Noida, Delhi or Ghaziabad, please share details or DM me.

Thank you.

So, for context, I am dating this girl close to an year, met her in 2025, she knows my financial well, I have a business and earn over 4 to 5 lacs on average monthly n even more or less sometimes.

Her father is constructing their village home, they are short of 2 lacs, so she asked me, and said will give back over 6 months, but I feel money can ruin a relation, I trust her, but my instinct saying no

If I keep the whatsapp chat and transaction, in case she forfeits later, can I get it back?

I'm not a lawyer , last year shoe accident did not affected you ?

Every lawyer knows he was targeted cause he was from some community, people were finding every problem in him in his tenure , but I don't see any outrage on social media now . Now rarely a post circulates against a judge .

Why he did not take any strong action against thrower ? Do you think same action someone will take against a judge from other community ?

Last year action affected me a lot , bcoz it gives a message whether you become a cji you always be a sc to other Indians. A lawyer can throw shoe at constitutional post and nothing can be done cause a sc was sitting on it . People Celebrated that shit .

Is it worth doing 3 year llb from faculty of law DU ? Considering my age but that would be not my only goal like if I join college then I'd prepare for some other competitive exams too like ssc and bank and is corporate law possible from DU ?

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some legal guidance regarding a jointly owned residential apartment in Mumbai.

The apartment is jointly owned by my mother, her elder sister, and her elder brother. The ownership of the property was under litigation for around 12 years, but the dispute has now been resolved, and the court has held that the property belongs to all three of them.

Throughout these years, my mother spent a significant amount of money pursuing the case.

Currently:

My mother’s elder brother (late 60s) is living in the apartment. He is not financially well off and is willing to sell the property.
Initially, all three co-owners had agreed to sell the apartment after the case was resolved.
However, my mother’s elder sister has now refused to sell. She has not provided any clear reason. From what we understand, her son is strongly influencing this decision.
The sister herself is also residing in another co-jointly owned property. Which mom and her brother has plan to sell off.
Ironically, both the sister and her son are also facing financial difficulties.

This has left my mother in a difficult position. She has already endured 12 years of litigation and does not want to get involved in another prolonged legal battle.

My questions are:

If one co-owner refuses to sell, what legal options are available to the other co-owners?
Can the other two co-owners force a sale or seek partition of the property?
Is there any practical solution that avoids years of fresh litigation?
Would mediation or any other legal mechanism be advisable in such a situation?

Hello everyone,
I am looking for urgent legal guidance regarding a highly complex service matter involving a family member who is a retired government secondary school teacher. We need to understand the best course of action regarding over a decade of withheld salary and frozen retirement benefits.
The Timeline & Context:
Initial Dispute: Years ago, the employee was terminated from service on the grounds that the university from which they obtained their professional teaching qualification was declared unauthorized/unregistered and subsequently delisted.
High Court Intervention: The employee challenged this termination in the state High Court. The Court granted an interim stay on the termination order, resulting in their reinstatement.
Service Under Stay: Under the protection of the High Court’s stay order, the employee continuously performed their duties and served out their full tenure for over 12 years until their age of superannuation (retirement).
The Issue: Despite physically working and fulfilling all duties for those 12+ years, the State Education Department withheld 100% of their salary for that entire period. Furthermore, since their retirement, they have not received any pension or retiral benefits. The department has completely frozen all dues.
Our Core Dilemmas:

1. Jurisdiction: Should this matter be pursued administratively through the state's apex Education Directorate, or is filing for final disposal/contempt/a fresh application in the High Court our only real recourse to resolve this deadlock?
2. Precedents: Are there specific, established judgments regarding employees who did perform actual work under a court stay but were denied salary? How does service law typically view pension eligibility for service rendered under an interim court order when the individual successfully completed their tenure?
3. Legal Representation: What specific type of legal specialist should we look for to handle this? (e.g., Service law experts, constitutional lawyers). If anyone has experience fighting government education departments on withheld retiral benefits or qualification disputes, what strategies worked for you?
   Any insights on how to approach this legally would be deeply appreciated. Thank you.

I'm a 28F living in Bangalore in a flat owned by my mother. I've been staying here for the last four years without paying rent, although I do pay the maintenance charges and have spent my own money on the interiors.

Recently, my mother sent me a legal notice asking me to vacate the flat. I intend to leave, but I wanted to know whether she can legally do this even though I've invested money in the property.

She has also sent a legal notice to my boyfriend demanding rent for the two years he stayed here, claiming he owes around 15 lakh. There was never any rent agreement. I believe this is being done to harass us and pressure me into ending my relationship, as my parents strongly oppose my boyfriend and don't want me to marry him.

On top of this, my parents want me to sign a declaration stating that if I marry my boyfriend against their wishes then

- They will not be responsible for me in any way.

- If anything happens to me in the future, they will have no liability.

- If my boyfriend or his family ever demand money for any rituals or expenses, my parents will have no obligation to pay anything.

- They will disown me if I choose to marry him against their wishes.

I feel this declaration is being used purely as a means of pressuring me into breaking up with my boyfriend.

Does the money I spent on interiors give me any legal rights or claim? And Can my mother legally recover two years' rent from my boyfriend when there was never any rent agreement?

I'm planning to consult a lawyer, but I'd appreciate some general legal guidance before I do.

Swiggy charging extra GST is it legal ? Already the food it taxes at source restaurant then why again GST ? Is it a fraud done by Swiggy

Been thinking a lot about the whole good vs bad, devil vs angel, right vs wrong angle in the Siya Goyal case.

We often talk about morality, guilt, and “doing the right thing,” but Siya Goyal doesn’t seem to fit that expected picture at all. From the outside, she appears confident about what she has done, almost as if she’s enjoying the spotlight and playing with the media narrative rather than showing fear or remorse.

Now that she has been sent to 14 days of judicial custody, it got me wondering: in a case like this, which is actually harder on the accused — police custody or judicial custody?

My own sense is that judicial custody at least opens up the possibility of bail and may be less immediately intense than police custody. But psychologically, socially, and legally, which one tends to weigh more heavily on someone in her position?

The worst combo:
