Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed a dispute between a landlord and tenant regarding an interim order by the High Court that increased the rent from Rs.100 to Rs.2,000 per month. The Court stayed the High Court's order and directed the tenant to continue paying rent at the old rate until the final resolution of the writ petition pending before the High Court. The Court emphasized the need for the High Court to expedite the disposal of the writ petition.
