STATE OF PUNJAB vs MANG.COMTT.OF KANYA MAHA VIDYALAYA

The case concerns an appeal against a High Court order granting eviction to a landlord under Section 14(1)(b) of the Tamil Nadu Building (Lease and Rent Control) Act, 1960. The landlord sought eviction on the grounds of demolition and reconstruction to build a multi-storied building for better income. The core legal issue involves whether the requirement for demolition and reconstruction is genuine and if the tenant's claim regarding the sound condition of the building precludes eviction.
