I share a common compound with my neighbour. Now the neighbour wants to demolish the compound and construct a bigger wall but he wants me to share half of the expenditure. I don’t have finance to spend on that. I want to know whether I can allow him to construct the compound on his own and whether it will affect me in any way as a property holder in his neighbour.

Answer: As far as construction of a compound wall is concerned, it should not affect your proprietary right to your property. If your neighbor wants to construct compound on the common boundary line than it is your mere choice or wish if you want to take part in the expenses.
