SETH BALGOPAL DAS vs THE STATE OF U.P. & ORS.

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Allahabad High Court regarding the eviction of a tenant under the U.P. (Temporary) Control of Rent & Eviction Act III of 1947, specifically Section 3(2), which mandates that an aggrieved party must apply for revision within 30 days of the order being communicated. The Court ruled that the tenant's revision application was filed beyond the prescribed time limit and thus rejected. The Court also noted that the time taken to obtain a certified copy of the order could not be excluded under Section 12(2) of the Limitation Act, affirming the High Court's dismissal of the tenant's petition under Article 226 of the Constitution.
