Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's directive that the landlord must provide alternative accommodation to the tenants, as per the offer made during the proceedings. The Court noted that the landlord had established a bona fide requirement under Section 21(1) of the Rent Control Act, leading to an eviction order. The High Court's decision to facilitate an exchange of accommodation was affirmed, ensuring that both parties would obtain possession simultaneously, with the implementation overseen by the Prescribed Authority.
