Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the eviction of the tenant under Section 5(1)(c) of the Assam Urban Areas Rent Control Act, 1972, confirming the findings of the Trial Court and Appellate Court regarding the landlord's bona fide requirement for personal occupation. The Court reiterated the principles regarding the consideration of subsequent events in civil suits, emphasizing that such events must be relevant, timely, and not surprise the opposing party. The Court found that the tenant's applications regarding subsequent events did not meet the necessary legal criteria for consideration, thus affirming the eviction order.
