The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to restore possession to tenants after setting aside ex-parte eviction orders, emphasizing the need for proper consideration of evidence by the Rent Controller. The Court noted that the tenants had filed applications under Rule 8(3) of the relevant Rent Control Rules for restoration of possession, which were pending. The Court found no illegality in the High Court's order, affirming the tenants' right to seek restoration of possession as per the established legal framework under the Rent Control legislation.
