Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellants' eviction suit under the Uttar Pradesh Urban Buildings (Regulation of Letting, Rent and Eviction) Act, 1972, specifically referencing Section 21. The Court established that the appellants failed to prove the grounds of default in rent payment and unauthorized sub-letting, which are essential for eviction under the Act. Consequently, the Court affirmed the High Court's decision, maintaining the status quo of the tenancy.
