In Karnataka, a tenant living in a 1RK apartment has expressed frustration after a housing society introduced a rule barring residents of smaller units from using common facilities such as the gym and swimming pool. The tenant, who initially chose the apartment for its amenities, was informed that they could no longer access these facilities without paying a daily guest fee, despite continuing to pay maintenance costs. This policy change has raised questions about discrimination and fairness in housing practices. Many online users responded to the tenant's post, sharing their own experiences and explaining how amenities are often managed in gated communities, where access can be restricted based on unit size. Some suggested that the tenant investigate the legality of the new rule and consider taking legal action if necessary. The incident highlights ongoing debates about the rights of tenants in residential societies and the accessibility of shared facilities.
