Dear Madam,

"Pagdi" means tenancy, and tenancy rights are transferable with the consent and concurrence of the landlord. You should request your grandmother to signify her willingness to this effect in writing, and request the landlord to record the transfer, and issue monthly receipts for payments made to the landlord, in your name.

Regards,
