Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding the eviction of the appellant, who claimed to be a co-tenant but was found to be a sub-tenant. The Court emphasized that the appellant failed to present necessary facts and was bound by the principles of constructive res judicata, as he did not raise relevant pleas in the earlier proceedings. The Court affirmed that the review application was both delayed and not bona fide, thereby dismissing the appeal against the eviction decree.
