JUSTICE MAHESH GROVER Present:- Mr.Kulbhushan Sharma, Advocate for the petitioners Mr.R.N.Singla and Mr. Sudharshan Goel, Advocates for the respondent MAHESH GROVER, J This order will dispose of three civil revision petitions bearing nos. 4634 of 2006, 4635 of 2006 and 4636 of 2006. The parties are ad idem that the revision petitions can be CR No.4634 of 2006 2 disposed of. The respondent who is tenant has vacated the premises and the only surviving dispute being contested before the Civil Court in a suit for recovery which the petitioner has initiated to recover the rent from the respondent. The apprehension expressed by the petitioner is that the rate of rent which is determined by the Rent Controller will be an impediment in his way to recover arrears of rent as there is a serious dispute regarding rate of rent determined by the Rent Controller and the one claimed by him. Learned counsel for the respondent states that he has no objection if the petition is disposed of with observation that findings of the Rent Controller shall not in any way be considered to be binding upon the Civil Court. After hearing learned counsel for the parties, I am of the considered opinion that regardless of the concession made by the learned counsel for the respondent, it is always open for the Civil Court to independently conclude the controversy between the parties and the findings by the Rent Controller in proceedings under Section 13 can merely be considered to be a piece of material which can be evaluated by the Court, as the Rent Controller merely undertakes an inquiry regarding the issues before it.
