Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decree for eviction under Section 12(1)(b) of the M.P. Accommodation Control Act, 1961, determining that the sub-tenancy created by the tenant was unlawful due to non-compliance with Section 15 of the Act. The Court clarified that the tenant's failure to notify the landlord about the sub-tenancy within six months of the Act's commencement rendered the sub-tenancy invalid. Consequently, the Court affirmed the lower court's decision, allowing the plaintiff's appeal for eviction.
