SATENDRA SINGH vs VINOD KUMAR BHALOTIA

The Supreme Court addressed the eviction suit under the Uttar Pradesh Urban Buildings (Regulation of Letting, Rent and Eviction) Act, 1972, holding that the petitioner, who had occupied the shop since 1979, could not contest the eviction based on the Act's provisions as the building was completed in 1970. The Court also found the notice under Section 106 of the Transfer of Property Act to be valid, thus affirming the High Court's order for the petitioner to vacate the premises. The judgment highlights the delays in the judicial process, emphasizing the need for timely justice delivery.
