RAM CHANDRA VERMA vs JAGAT SINGH SINGHI

The Supreme Court held that a compromise decree for eviction is a nullity unless the conditions for eviction are proven. The Court found that the appellant, Harkesh Rai Agarwal, was independently in possession of the premises as a tenant, supported by admissions from co-owners. The Court ruled that the appellant cannot be ejected without due process of law, and the execution of the compromise decree can only proceed against Harkesh Rai Agarwal. The appeal was allowed, and no costs were awarded.
