Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the eviction of the tenant under Section 13(1)(h) of the Rajasthan Premises (Control of Rent and Eviction) Act, 1950, confirming that the landlord's bona fide need for the premises was established. The Court found that the trial court correctly assessed the requirement of the landlord's family, which consisted of 27 members, against the available 13 rooms. The plea regarding an alternative accommodation was dismissed, affirming the trial court's decision on comparative hardship favoring the landlord.
