Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Additional Rent Controller's refusal to grant leave to contest eviction under Section 14(1)(e) of the Delhi Rent Control Act, 1958 was justified as the appellant failed to present any triable issue. The Court affirmed the eviction order, emphasizing the landlord's bona fide requirement for personal occupation. The appeal was dismissed, upholding the lower courts' decisions regarding the eviction proceedings.
