Nk Rajendra Mohan vs Thirvamadi Rubber Co. Ltd And Ors

The Supreme Court adjudicated on a dispute regarding the eviction of a respondent-company from land claimed by the plaintiffs as part of their Tarwad, asserting that the lease granted in 1918 had lapsed and that the respondent had no right to retain possession. The Court held that the respondent's claim of fixity of tenure under the Malabar Tenancy Act 1929 and the Kerala Land Reforms Act 1963 was unfounded, as the original lease had expired and no rights were conferred thereafter. Consequently, the Court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, affirming their entitlement to eviction and arrears of rent as claimed under the relevant tenancy laws.
