Fakir Mohd. (Dead) By Lrs vs Sita Ram

The Supreme Court addressed the interpretation of Section 13 and Section 19A of the Rajasthan Premises (Control of Rent and Eviction) Act, 1950, in a case concerning the eviction of a tenant for non-payment of rent. The Court held that the tenant's previous deposits under Section 19A were not valid, leading to the conclusion that the tenant was indeed in default. Consequently, the Court upheld the eviction decree passed by the appellate court and the High Court, affirming the landlord's right to evict the tenant under the provisions of the Act.
