Fateh Singh(D) Th.Lrs vs Sahib Singh (D) Th.Lrs

The Supreme Court held that under Section 14(1)(a) of the Delhi Rent Control Act, 1958, the relationship of landlord and tenant must be established for a suit of ejectment due to non-payment of rent. The Court found that the Tenant had failed to comply with the orders of the Additional Rent Controller and the Rent Control Tribunal regarding rent payment, thus upholding the landlord's right to possession. The appeal was allowed, affirming the execution of the decree of possession in favor of the landlord.
