Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the eviction order under Section 13 of the East Punjab Urban Rent Control Act, confirming that the original tenant had sub-let the premises to his son without the landlady's consent. The Court found that the evidence supported the conclusion that the father had not intended to lease the property for his son's use, as the rent note explicitly stated it was for the father's business. The Court affirmed the findings of both the Rent Controller and the Appellate Authority, thereby dismissing the appeal.
