Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed a dispute under Section 6 of the Specific Relief Act concerning the possession of a shop. The Court held that the plaintiff, who claimed to have been dispossessed, failed to establish a prima facie case or balance of convenience in her favor, as the evidence showed that the respondent had been in possession since 2004 as a tenant. The Court upheld the lower court's decision, emphasizing that granting the injunction would effectively decide the case without a full trial, thus affirming the status quo of the respondent's possession.
