SUSHILA RAJE HOLKAR vs COL. ANIL KAK(RETD).

The Supreme Court addressed contempt petitions arising from alleged violations of its prior judgment dated 19.9.2005 in Civil Appeal No. 5807 of 2005. The Court emphasized that the execution of a registered lease deed is crucial for enforcing lease agreements, as per the principles of specific performance under the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The Court held that the respondent's failure to comply with the earlier order warranted contempt proceedings, thereby reinforcing the authority of its judgments.
