 Elderly people have the option to get the property in their name.

 Those who are elderly parents and their children want to get the property transferred to their name but doing so forcibly is a crime, this complaint can be made in two ways. First of all, a complaint should be made to the police against that son or daughter and a criminal case will be registered under sections 350, 379, 506 of the Indian Penal Code. Secondly, one can also go to the Welfare Tribunal because for complaints in such cases, there is a special tribunal in every state which works under the supervision of an officer of the rank of Sub-Divisional Officer i.e. SDO, because the complaint has to be submitted in writing to the SDO. While making this complaint, your name, address and other important information have to be written clearly and the children of that elderly person are called during the hearing of the complaint.
