Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that in a suit for eviction, where the relationship of landlord and tenant is admitted, the tenant cannot challenge the landlord's title. The Court found that the High Court erred in directing the trial Court to decide the issue of title based on evidence other than the respondents' admissions. The Court upheld the lower courts' rejection of the respondents' applications for amendment of the written statement, emphasizing that such amendments were unnecessary in the context of the eviction suit. Consequently, the relevant part of the High Court's order was set aside, and the trial Court was instructed to expedite the eviction proceedings.
