Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that the Civil Court lacks jurisdiction to entertain a suit for possession concerning property governed by the Haryana (Control of Rent & Eviction) Act, 1973. The court emphasized that the appropriate legal remedy for the appellants is to pursue eviction proceedings under the specified Act rather than through civil litigation. The judgment upheld previous rulings that clarified the jurisdictional boundaries in such matters.
