May 2, 2025 at 12:30 pmlabour family that has been illegally living on the roof of our building locks their children and go to work. Everyday. Heat, rain or winters.The builder of the apartment building we live in Old Rajinder Nagar allegedly gave the rooftop to one of the labourers that built the building. Him, his wife, his family with kids are living there for years.
My dad didnt want any confrontation so we didnt.
But over the years we have been facing a lot of problems and this locking their kids is a major safety hazard which is the last straw.
1. They have been stealing electricity of one of the floors.
2. They suck out water from the tanks of every floor, emptying the tanks and leaving us without water. Specially during summers when the water supply is low.
3. THEY LOCK THEIR KIDS AND LEAVE FOR WORK. WTF
What can I do to deal with this situation?
The owner of the floor with roof is not reachable. The caretaker doesnt respond. UPSC Kids living on the top floor have to bear the electricity bill every month.

May 2, 2025 at 1:10 pmDone with warnings honestly. Past 6 years these guys have been a pain in the ass. For some time they will listen and then go back to their old habits. Toxic ex behaviour-
