Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that once a landlord sells the property after obtaining an eviction order on the grounds of bona fide need, the original need cannot be sustained. The Court allowed the appeal, thereby reversing the eviction order against the tenant. The judgment emphasizes that the change in ownership affects the validity of the eviction claim.
