Civil Revision No.3281 of 2010 Date of Decision: 20.8.2010 Jugal Kishore …Petitioner Versus Gurmeet Kaur and Another …Respondents CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA. Present: Mr. Sudhir Paruthi, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Ritesh Pandey, Advocate for respondent No.1. None for respondent No.2. Kanwaljit Singh Ahluwalia, J. (Oral) The present revision petition has been filed by the tenant. It is submitted that vide impugned order dated 27.4.2010, the Rent Controller, Jalandhar, allowed the application, filed by respondent No.1/landlady and permitted her to lead additional evidence. Furthermore, an amendment, in the eviction petition, was also permitted. The impugned order has specifically stated that the landlady would be afforded one opportunity to adduce additional evidence on 14.5.2010 and thereafter no further opportunity would be granted to her. Mr. Paruthi submits that despite the specific directions, issued in the impugned order, the landlady has not led any evidence on Civil Revision No.3281 of 2010 2 14.5.2010. Thereafter, two witnesses were examined by the landlady on 2.6.2010 and the case was adjourned to 19.6.2010. On that date, no witness was examined and the case was subsequently adjourned to 19.8.2010. No witness was present on 19.8.2010 and the eviction petition was dismissed in default. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that in view of this, he will not assail the impugned order as the present revision petition has been rendered infructuous. However, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that in case the eviction petition is restored, it will act to the detriment of the tenant. This Court is of the view that the petitioner has a liberty to project before the Rent Controller, Jalandhar, that conduct of respondent No.1/landlady is such that she is not entitled to the revival of the eviction petition. Hence, the present revision petition is dismissed as infructuous with a liberty aforesaid to the petitioner. (Kanwaljit Singh Ahluwalia) Judge August 20, 2010 “DK”
