Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the appeal against the High Court's order that quashed the trial court's decision to dismiss the eviction suit. The court held that the High Court erred in granting eviction under Order XII Rule 6 of the CPC without proper examination of the evidence. The judgment emphasized the necessity of a thorough factual inquiry before ordering eviction, thereby restoring the trial court's order.
