NIHAL CHAND vs KALYAN CHAND JAIN

The Supreme Court held that under Section 14A(1) of the Delhi Rent Control Act, 1958, a landlord can seek eviction of a tenant if the landlord is required to vacate government accommodation due to owning a residential property. The Court clarified that the summary procedure under Section 25B is applicable to applications under Section 14A(1) as well. The Court upheld the Rent Controller's order for eviction, rejecting the tenant's claims of mala fides and maintainability, thus affirming the landlord's right to evict the tenant.
