C.R. No.5753 of 2010 -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.R. No.5753 of 2010 Date of Decision: 8.9.2010 Ashok Kumar ……Petitioner VERSUS Sunil Kumar ……Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ALOK SINGH -.- Present: Mr. Harish Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. 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? ALOK SINGH, J. (ORAL) 1. Present petition is filed challenging the order dated 10.8.2010 passed by learned Rent Controller, Dhuri, thereby provi- sionally assessing the rent @ Rs.2500/- per month w.e.f. 1.7.2007 alongwith costs of the application Rs.300/- and directed the tenant/petitioner to deposit the entire amount alongwith costs and in- terest on or before the next date of hearing. C.R. No.5753 of 2010 -2- 2. Learned Counsel for the petitioner/tenant vehemently ar- gued that although landlord/respondent has filed eviction petition al- leging therein that monthly rent of the shop in dispute is Rs.3500/- p.m., however, learned Rent Controller has assessed the monthly rent @ Rs.2500/- p.m. Learned Counsel for the petitioner/tenant fur- ther argued that according to the tenant, monthly rent is only Rs.1400/- p.m. He further stated that tenant is not accepting the re- spondent as a landlord and disputing the relationship of landlord and tenant between the parties. At this stage, learned Counsel for the petitioner/tenant states that now he has given up his argument re- garding relationship of landlord and tenant between the parties. 3. In view of the fact and circumstances of the case that landlord/respondent has claimed rate of rent @ Rs.3500/- p.m. and learned Rent Controller has provisionally assessed the rent @ Rs.2500/- p.m., no interference is called for. 4. Petition is devoid of merit, hence, is dismissed. ( ALOK SINGH ) 08th September, 2010 JUDGE ashish
