Chandrika Prasad (D) Thr. Lrs. & Anr vs Umesh Kumar Verma & Ors

The Supreme Court held that under Section 14(8) of the Bihar Building (Lease, Rent & Eviction) Control Act, 1982, the High Court erred in reversing the Trial Court's finding regarding the landlords' bonafide requirement for eviction under Section 11(1)(c). The Court emphasized that the High Court's re-appreciation of evidence was impermissible, as the landlords had established a genuine need for the premises for their son-in-law's clinic. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order and upheld the eviction order of the Trial Court.
