Darshan Singh Petitioner through Mr. R.K.Girdhar, Advocate Versus The District Collector, Muktsar & Ors. Respondents through Ms. Monica Chhibbar, DAG, Punjab Ms. Meena Bansal, Advocate, for respondents No. 2 and 3. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURYA KANT. 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? SURYA KANT, J. [ORAL] This order shall dispose of CWP Nos. 13881 and 13882 of 2010 as common questions of law and facts are involved in these cases. Learned counsel for respondents No. 2 and 3 states that the petitioner has complied with the order dated 06.08.2010 and has deposited the entire arrears of rent up to 13.07.2010, i.e., the date when the petitioner was dispossessed, along with penalty and interest imposed by this Court. I have heard learned counsel for the parties on the renewal of tenancy in favour of the petitioner[s]. It is an admitted fact that the petitioner after he was dispossessed on 13.07.2010, has not been able to run his business from the premises in dispute. The petitioner has pointed out the mitigating circumstances like death of his son due to cancer as the cause of non- payment of rent. Keeping in view the totality of the circumstances, it is directed that the petitioner's tenancy be renewed subject to his payment of half of the rent for the period he has remained out of possession and further subject to his paying full rent from the date he is put into possession. Disposed of. Dasti. February 14, 2011. ( SURYA KANT ) dinesh JUDGE
