Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the eviction order under the Kerala Buildings (Lease and Rent Control) Act, 1965, confirming the findings of the Rent Control Appellate Authority and the Rent Control Court. The Court ruled that the claim of Kudikidappu rights under Section 125(3) of the Kerala Land Reforms Act, 1963, was not maintainable as the tenant's predecessor did not possess such rights, as established by the Land Tribunal's findings. Consequently, the appeal against the eviction order was dismissed, and the order of the Appellate Authority regarding the Kudikidappu rights was set aside.
