how to combat an affluent person monopolising an area, which he does not own any longer..pl. help somebody?

Question

we were staying in a city and wanted to move to a more serene area and started communicating with the person in question who years ago had purchased various plots at throw away prices and has now built colonies and made millions. Firstly, he hoodwinked us on many, many issues like the electrity is slim, even our two invertors conck out, he has not made drainage system the rain water is just left to accummulate for 8 to 10 days waiting for the sun to dry it out, we have purchased these flats on ownership basis but the builder behaves as if he owns all of us dictating terms to all and sundry, as there is the panchayat raj out here.. when we asked him before coming if there were all emergency services availabe and he said yes, but he did not tell us that to reach an equipped hospital we have to travel 45 kms, the list is endless.. where there is no municipality whom do we approach...panchayat people, our local watchmen everybody are in his fists, and they bow to him as if he is a demi god

Answer 1

Depending on the extent of his misrepresentations, you may be able to take him to court for fraud. Especially if things like installing drainage were put in a written contract.

Sounds like you should have done some more research and gotten some more things in writing before you bought the land.

Answer 2

It looks like you did not do your homework. Hire a different builder. It is your property, fix the drainage with drains or re-contour the land. It certainly is not his job to tell you where the hospital is. It looks like you are getting an expensive education.
