Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of tenancy rights under the Bombay Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1948, specifically referencing Section 29 regarding restoration of possession. The Court held that the tenant's application for restoration was not barred by limitation, as the High Court had correctly applied Section 14 of the Limitation Act to grant the tenant the benefit of exclusion of time during which he was pursuing his remedy. Consequently, the Supreme Court upheld the High Court's order restoring possession to the tenant.
