Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in setting aside the concurrent findings of fact by the trial court and the lower appellate court regarding the bona fide requirement of the landlord under Section 12(1)(f) of the M.P. Accommodation Control Act, 1961. The Court emphasized that the bona fide requirement is a question of fact that should not give rise to substantial questions of law for second appeals. The judgment of the High Court was reversed, reinstating the findings of the lower courts in favor of the landlord.
