Landlord harassing for rent every month

Sometimes we pay the rent after the due date mentioned in the agreement. The problem is our landlords enter the house once the due date is gone and they stay there for 5-10 days or however long it takes for us to pay them. They harass us mentally by doing this and also threaten us with police action and FIRs till we pay them. It has been written in the rent agreement that if the tenant is unable or does not pay the rent, then the landlord can serve a notice asking them to vacate the property. We have talked to our landlords about this multiple times but they just aren't ready to give us a notice. They forcefully ask us to pay rent and stay in the house even after we have explicitly told them that we can't pay rent and hence can't continue staying in their property anymore. Also, they enter the house illegally for this purpose even after having agreed that they will only come for a property inspection, but they come and live in the house till we pay them the rent.

They cannot stay but it is advisable that you look for an alternate accommodation and issue them a notice to vacate that you will clear licence fees and dues are not cleared he can adjust the same from refundable deposit.
