Civil Revision No.2905 of 2010 -1- **** IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No. 2905 of 2010 Date of decision: 4.5.2010 Madan Lal ...Petitioner Versus Smt. Renu ..Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE S.D.ANAND. Present: Mr. Sudhanshu Makker, Advocate for the petitioner. S.D.ANAND, J. The petitioner-tenant was ordered to be ejected from the tenanted premises by the learned Rent Controller, vide order dated 18.8.2005. The finding recorded was that the respondent – landlady requires the tenanted premises for personal necessity. The finding was affirmed by the learned Appellate Authority, vide order dated 25.2.2010. The petitioner is in revision against the aforesaid order. It is vehemently argued on behalf of the petitioner that impugned acquisition of title (of the tenanted premises by the respondent-landlady) is malafide inasmuch she filed an ejectment plea immediately after the purchase. Learned counsel agrees that no plea of malafides had been raised in the pleadings at the trial. Even otherwise, the mere fact that the landlord/landlady filed an ejectment petition shortly after Civil Revision No.2905 of 2010 -2- **** the purchase of tenanted premises would be, ipso facto, no ground to hold that the acquisition of title of the tenanted premises was malafide. The concurrent finding of fact is that respondent-landlady is putting up in a tenanted one room accommodation. There are four family members of hers. She cannot stay with her mother-in-law with whom she has differences in any case. She cannot, even otherwise, stay in a premises belonging to her mother-in-law in her own right. Even otherwise, this Court would be reluctant to interfere with the finding of fact recorded by the learned Rent Controller and affirmed by the learned Appellate Authority in view of the law laid down by the Apex Court in M.S.Zehad Vs. K. Raghvan 1998 (2) RCR 628. In the light of foregoing discussion, the petition is held to be denuded of merit and is ordered to be dismissed. The petitioner shall have one year time from today to vacate the premises aforementioned. May 04, 2010 (S.D.Anand) Pka Judge
