CHANDY VARGHESE vs K. ABDUL KHADER

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decree of injunction and recovery of possession, affirming that the contesting defendants were not entitled to protection against eviction under Section 106 of the Kerala Land Reforms Act, 1963. The Court clarified that Section 106 only applies to leases of land where a building for commercial or industrial purposes was constructed before May 20, 1967, and not to leases of buildings or combined leases. The appeal was dismissed as the defendants failed to prove their entitlement under the Act.
