CW 6160/08 //1// In the High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan Jaipur Bench Jaipur ** Civil Writ Petition No.6160/2008 Bakhat Ram Versus Tulsiram & others. Date of Order ::: 08/07/09 Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Rastogi Mr. Vinodi Lal Mathur, for petitioner Mr. Shailesh Pra. Sharma, for respondent (landlord) Instant petition has been filed assailing judgment & decree dt.23/02/08 (Ann.5) whereby Rent Appellate Tribunal, Kota decreed the suit in favour of plaintiff (landlord) directing petitioner herein (tenant) to handover vacant possession of rented premises within two months. At the time of admission, this Court vide order dt.08/07/08 recorded statement of Counsel for petitioner that petitioner may be allowed some reasonable time to vacate the premises in order to enable him to seek alternative accommodation and in view whereof, this Court passed interim order that in case petitioner deposits the entire arrears of rent and continues to deposit regular rent, execution of the decree against him shall remain stayed for a period of three weeks. Almost a year has now passed after interim order dt.08/07/08 of this Court. The suit filed by plaintiff seeking eviction of petitioner on the ground of bonafide & personal necessity of landlord, decreed on 23/02/08. CW 6160/08 //2// On instructions, Counsel for petitioner seeks further time to enable him to locate alternative accommodation, to which Counsel for respondent has seriously objected and submits that almost a year has been consumed by petitioner to locate alternative accommodation after order was passed by this Court on 08/07/08. Be that as it may, in the interest of justice, this Court finds justification to grant further time to the petitioner to enable him to locate alternative accommodation. Since notices were issued on 08/07/08 only to grant reasonable time to petitioner to vacate premises in execution of the decree impugned to which the Counsel for petitioner has confined submissions and has not argued the appeal on merits assailing impugned judgment & decree, accordingly, finding record in judgment impugned stands upheld and this Court considers it appropriate that petitioner should hand over vacant possession of the rented premises to the plaintiff landlord on or before 31/12/09 during which, shall also continue to pay regular rent of the suit premises without any delay or default. With above directions, writ petition stands disposed of. No order as to costs. (Ajay Rastogi), J. K.Khatri/p2/6160CW08Jul08-Ald.doc
