Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that under Section 14(4) of the H.P. Urban Rent Control Act, 1987, if the Rent Controller is satisfied with the landlord's bona fide claim for eviction, an order must be executed without delay, and the High Court's directive to delay execution until a revised building plan is sanctioned contradicts this provision. The Court emphasized that the eviction order should be executed as per the Controller's decision, and the tenants must vacate within the specified time. The appeals were allowed, setting aside the High Court's order.
