Satyawati Sharma (Dead) By Lrs vs Union Of India & Another

The Supreme Court addressed the constitutionality of Section 14(1)(e) of the Delhi Rent Control Act, 1958, determining that it does not violate Article 14 of the Constitution. The Court held that eviction under this section is permissible only if the premises were originally let for residential purposes, affirming the lower courts' findings that the appellant failed to establish her claim for eviction based on bona fide need and violation of lease conditions. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed, upholding the decisions of the Additional Rent Controller and the Rent Control Tribunal.
