Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the suit filed by the father of the appellants was maintainable despite the appellants being described as heirs rather than owners, as this was a mere irregularity under Section 21 of the Uttar Pradesh Urban Buildings (Regulation of Letting, Rent and Eviction) Act, 1972. The Court ruled that the trial court's findings on issues of landlord status and non-payment of rent were valid, leading to the eviction decree being upheld. The judgment clarified that the description of parties does not affect the merits or jurisdiction of the court.
