Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the eviction order under Section 21 of the Uttar Pradesh Urban Buildings (Regulation of Letting, Rent and Eviction) Act, 1972, confirming that the applicants had a bona fide requirement for the shop in question. The Court found that the applicants' need for the shop was genuine and that they would suffer greater hardship if the eviction was not granted. The appeals from the District Judge and the High Court were dismissed, affirming the lower courts' decisions.
