Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petitions against the Delhi High Court's eviction decree, granting the tenant six months to vacate and requiring an undertaking within six weeks. The tenant's failure to comply led to contempt proceedings, as they filed frivolous objections instead of vacating the premises. The Court emphasized the need to curb such malpractice in landlord-tenant disputes and found the tenant's actions contemptuous, warranting further legal action.
