Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the concurrent findings of lower courts that the Tamil Nadu City Tenants Protection Act does not apply in the present case, referencing the precedent set in Mylapore Club Vs. State of T.N. The Court emphasized that the legislature has the plenary power to legislate and can withdraw rights conferred by a statute, as these are not vested rights. The appeal was dismissed as lacking merit, affirming the legislative competence and constitutionality of the amendments made to the Act.
