Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal concerning the ejectment of Tarsem Lal, a tenant, under Section 13 of the East Punjab Urban Rent Restriction Act, 1949. The Court held that the landlady had established grounds for ejectment, including arrears of rent and unauthorized sub-letting, thereby affirming her right to reclaim possession of the premises. The judgment emphasized the importance of adhering to the terms of tenancy and the necessity for landlords to protect their property rights.
