Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court set aside the Allahabad High Court's order allowing eviction under Section 43(2)(rr) of the U.P. Rent Act, 1972, emphasizing that the landlord's undertaking to provide alternative accommodation was integral to the permission granted for eviction. The Court held that the landlord must comply with the assurances given to the tenant, and failure to do so negates the right to claim eviction. The judgment reinforces the principle that tenants should not be deprived of benefits promised by landlords in eviction proceedings.
