Judgment text excerpt
The case involves an appeal by a tenant against an eviction order passed under Section 12(1)(c) and (h) of the M.P. Accommodation Control Act, 1961. The primary legal issue concerns whether a registered partnership firm can maintain a suit for ejectment based on the requirements of its partners. The Supreme Court examines the ownership rights of the firm and the legitimacy of the grounds for eviction based on personal necessity.
