Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that under Section 25B(8) of the Rent Control Act, the only remedy available to a landlady against the Controller's order is a revision petition to the High Court, even if the order was a refusal to grant possession. The Court clarified that the non-obstante clause in Section 25A ensures that the provisions of Chapter IIIA prevail over any conflicting provisions in the Act. The Court dismissed the tenant's appeal, affirming that the procedure for eviction applications must adhere to the specific provisions of Chapter IIIA, thus reinforcing the expedited process for recovery of possession.
