Judgment 2 wp1226.17.odt

4. On going through the judgment passed by the trial Court, I find that the learned trial Judge has properly appreciated the evidence on record and has rightly concluded that the plaintiff/ landlord has proved his case.

The learned Principal District Judge, while considering the appeal filed by the defendant/ tenant has independently examined the evidence on record and has recorded her findings in paragraph 8 of the judgment that the plaintiff has established that the suit premises are required by him for bonafide use and occupation. In paragraphs 9 and 10 of the impugned judgment, the learned Principal District Judge has considered the point of comparative hardships and has concluded that greater hardship would be caused to the landlord if decree for eviction is not granted.

5. The petitioner/ original defendant has not been able to point out any illegality or perversity in the findings recorded by the subordinate Courts which necessitates interference by this Court in the extraordinary jurisdiction.

The petition is dismissed. Rule stands discharged. In the circumstances, the parties to bear their own costs.

JUDGE RRaut..
