Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the landlord's right to seek eviction of a tenant for non-payment of rent under the C.P. and Berar Letting of Houses and Rent Control Order, 1949. The court found that the Rent Controller had appropriately granted permission for eviction based on the landlord's bona fide requirement. The decision of the High Court was reversed, affirming the landlord's entitlement to regain possession of the property.
