Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the eviction order under Section 27(2)(r) of the Karnataka Rent Act, 1999, affirming that the landlord required the shop for his handicapped son’s business. The Court noted that the eviction was justified despite the appellant's claim of having reasonable accommodation elsewhere. The addition of Section 31 during the proceedings was deemed appropriate, reinforcing the landlord's right to recover possession due to his son's disability.
