Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in India

My father passed away a year ago, there is a pending litigation about his office premises.
Now the owner has made me as LR and asked to settle the 2 year rent and vacate the office as terms of settlement.
I have offered to vacate the office premise after my father's death, but the owner is insisting I also clear the past dues.

I am not a partner in my father's business, and the office is locked since my father's death.
Am I legally responsible for clearing the dues?

Dear Sir/Ma'am,

Since being legal heir of him, that you've made as necessary LR, check out mere rental agreement (receipt) retained through father, Okay.
