Dear Sir, as per your query,
Yes, your brother can ask you to vacate, because living without paying rent does not create any ownership or tenancy right. In law, you are treated as a permissive occupant and not a tenant.
However, he cannot throw you out forcefully. For this, he can file an eviction suit to remove you lawfully from the house.
