The Supreme Court addressed the issue of tenancy termination upon the death of a partner in a partnership firm. The court ruled that the tenancy ended automatically with the death of Pradeep Kumar, as per Section 12(2) of the U.P. Urban Buildings (Regulation of Letting, Rent and Eviction) Act, 1972. The appeal was allowed, affirming that the legal heirs of the deceased partners were not entitled to continue the tenancy.
