Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's judgment regarding the tenant's failure to prove the tender of rent under the Rent Control Act. The Court emphasized that the tenant did not produce essential evidence, such as money order coupons and the postman's testimony, to substantiate the claim of rent payment. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, but the tenant was granted four months to vacate the premises, provided all arrears were cleared and an undertaking was filed within four weeks.
