Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's order granting eviction under Section 21(1)(a) of the U.P. Urban Buildings (Regulation of Letting, Rent and Eviction) Act, 1972, based on the appellant's bona fide need for his physically disabled son to start a business. The Court affirmed the finding that the appellant had no alternative accommodation for his son, thus establishing that bona fide need is a valid ground for eviction. However, the Court modified the High Court's order by removing the two-year grace period for the respondent to vacate the premises, emphasizing the urgency of the appellant's need.
