MOHD. AYUB vs MUKESH CHAND

The Supreme Court addressed the application for eviction under Section 21 of the Uttar Pradesh Urban Buildings (Regulation of Letting, Rent and Eviction) Act, 1972, emphasizing that the landlord's bona fide requirement for the premises must be considered. The Court held that while the landlord cannot be dictated by the tenant regarding the business of their sons, the comparative hardship must also be evaluated. The High Court's directive to hand over only one room to the appellants was upheld, reflecting a balance between the rights of the landlord and the tenant's established business.
