Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that once an area is brought under the jurisdiction of the Haryana Rent Urban (Control of Rent and Eviction) Act, 1973, the Civil Court loses jurisdiction to adjudicate eviction suits concerning that area, even if the suit was filed prior to the notification. The Court clarified that the Rent Act applies to pending suits from the date of notification, thus necessitating landlords to seek eviction through the Rent Controller. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's decision that the Civil Court had no jurisdiction post-notification.
