Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the appellants, having purchased the suit property, stepped into the shoes of their vendor and thus became the landlords under the law, establishing a valid cause of action for eviction under the relevant provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court found that the High Court erred in dismissing the suit for misjoinder of parties, as the appellants had a joint cause of action based on their personal necessity for the property. The Court reinstated the eviction decree in favor of the appellants, allowing them to recover possession of the suit katras.
