spb/- 1 cra17-11.sxw IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE SIDE JURISDICTION CIVIL REVISION APPLICATION NO. 17 OF 2011 Damjibai Waghela ... Applicant. V/s. Nagin Bhika Dhedia @ Patel ... Respondent. --- Mr. Dattatraya Adarkar for the Applicant. ----- CORAM : D. G. KARNIK, J. DATE : 24th FEBRUARY, 2011. P.C. 1 This revision application is directed against concurrent decisions of the two courts below, passing a decree for eviction against the applicant- tenants. 2 The respondent filed a suit for eviction against applicant inter-alia on the ground of default i.e. non payment of rent. Prior to the suit, the respondent had issued a notice of demand to the applicant on 20th July, 1986. A copy of the notice alongwith the acknowledgment was filed on record. Despite the notice, the applicant did not make the payment. Hence, the courts below have passed a decree for possession and in my view, no interference is called for in the said decision. 3 The record also discloses that the defence of the tenant was struck off for non-payment of the rent and non-deposit of rent in the court during the course of the trial. spb/- 2 cra17-11.sxw 4 The learned counsel for the applicant submitted that the suit premises has been declared as slum area and hence the suit was not maintainable. No notification, declaring the suit premises as slum area was produced before the trial court or the appellate court. In the circumstances, there is no merit in the revision application. It is hereby rejected. [D.G. KARNIK, J.] .....
