DURGA PRASAD vs NARAYAN RAM CHANDAANI (D) THR. LR

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision affirming that the appellant, Durga Prasad, is an unauthorized occupant of the premises and does not qualify as a 'family' member or 'heir' under Section 3(g) and Section 3(a) of the U.P. Urban Buildings (Regulation of Letting, Rent and Eviction) Act, 1972. The Court ruled that the appellant failed to prove his residence with the deceased tenant, Lalita Devi, and thus the eviction order was valid. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed, affirming the lower court's findings.
