Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of a sub-tenant's right to resist eviction when not a party to the original decree, under Section 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court held that the execution court's inquiry into the sub-tenant's claims was valid, emphasizing the inherent powers of the court to address such grievances. The High Court's decision to uphold the execution court's order was affirmed, allowing the inquiry to proceed despite the sub-tenant's non-party status in the eviction decree.
