Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Appellate Authority under the U.P. Urban Buildings (Regulation of Letting, Rent and Eviction) Act, 1972, specifically Section 21(1)(a), which allows for eviction on the grounds of bona fide requirement. The Court found that the Appellate Authority correctly reversed the Trial Court's dismissal of the eviction application, establishing that the landlord had a genuine need for the premises for her grandson's business. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the Appellate Authority's ruling in favor of the eviction.
