Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Appellate Authority's decision allowing eviction under Section 13 of the Haryana Urban (Control of Rent and Eviction) Act, 1973, despite the Rent Controller's dismissal based on lack of proof of bona fide requirement. The Court reaffirmed that landlords can seek eviction from non-residential buildings for personal use, referencing previous judgments that declared certain provisions unconstitutional. The Court ultimately ruled in favor of the respondent, allowing the eviction application to proceed.
