A recent case in Ludhiana, Punjab, has once again highlighted the challenges NRIs face in managing property back home.
According to The Times of India, three individuals , including an NRI ,were arrested for allegedly opening fire during a land ownership conflict in Bhamian Kalan village.
The incident is a grim reminder of how unmonitored property disputes can escalate, especially when NRIs rely on informal arrangements or family caretakers.
Why NRIs Are Vulnerable in Property Issues
Many NRIs invest in land and real estate in India but live abroad for years, creating gaps in documentation, monitoring, and local management.
Common risks include:
Encroachments and false claims
Misuse of Power of Attorney
Fraudulent sale or land transfers
Legal inaction due to distance
How to Stay Legally Protected
Maintain digital and physical copies of all property records.
Appoint a verified legal representative or property manager.
Conduct regular audits or visits.
Avoid verbal deals or unregistered transfers.
Use trusted NRI legal advisory services (like OurNRI Legal Division).
