Ajit Singh & Anr vs Jit Ram & Anr

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in interfering with the findings of fact by the Appellate Authority regarding eviction on the grounds of subletting and non-payment of rent under the Punjab Rent Act. The Court emphasized that the Rent Controller had jurisdiction to entertain the eviction petition and affirmed the necessity of the landlord's personal use of the property. The appeal was allowed, restoring the order of eviction against the respondents.
