CR No.2404 of 2011 (O&M) -1- ***** IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CR No.2404 of 2011 (O&M) Date of decision:21.04.2011. Vijay Kumar ...Petitioner Versus Diwan Chand ...Respondent CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR JAIN Present: Mr. Denesh Goyal, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** Rakesh Kumar Jain, J. This revision petition is directed against the order dated 22.03.2011 passed by the learned Rent Controller, Bathinda by which an application filed by the petitioner for issuance of a direction to the landlord to produce the original documents mentioned in his application for enabling him to file application for provisional assessment of rent has been dismissed. Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the learned Rent Controller has committed an error of jurisdiction in dismissing the application on the ground that he cannot be allowed to make a roving inquiry. He has submitted that the landlord owns the other building also besides the demised premises, therefore, it was incumbent upon him to produce the documents which was asked for in the application. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the available record. In fact, in the application filed before the learned Rent Controller, the direction was sought for the purpose of production of documents to file an application for provisional assessment of rent, whereas the learned Rent Controller has found that the ground of arrears of rent has not even been taken CR No.2404 of 2011 (O&M) -2- ***** by the landlord, therefore, there was no occasion to issue a direction to the landlord for the purpose of producing documents enabling the tenant to prepare his application for the purpose of provisional assessment of the rent. I am in full agreement with the order passed by the learned Rent Controller as there is nothing in it which can call for interference by this Court and hence, the present revision petition is hereby dismissed in limine, though without any order as to costs.
