Dear Sir,
Yes — you can legally object to your brother installing a CCTV camera in the common entry/exit passage, even if there is no stay order from the court.
A stay order is not mandatory to object when:
The act affects common property
The act prejudices another co-owner
The act causes privacy invasion

Dear Sir, as per your query,
1. Yes, you can object—during a pending partition suit, a co-owner cannot unilaterally install CCTV in a common passage affecting joint possession and privacy without consent.
2. You may issue a legal notice and move an application before the trial court seeking removal or restriction of the camera despite no stay order.
