the prayer to issue direction to the Rent Tribunal, Jaipur

of Section 15 of the Rajasthan Rent Control Act, 2001, provides

for disposal of the Rent application within 240 days from the date

of service upon the respondent-tenant.

4. In support of contentions, counsel relied upon the judgment

passed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the matter of Hameed

Kunju vs. Nazimin, reported in (2017) 8 Supreme Court

Cases 611, wherein it has been held as under:-

"43. Before parting, we consider it apposite to observe that the object of the Rent Laws allover the State is to ensure speedy disposal of eviction cases between the landlord and tenant and especially those cases where the land lord seek eviction for his bona fide need.

44. We sincerely feel that the eviction matters should be given priority in their disposal at all stages of litigation and especially where the eviction is claimed on the ground of bona fide need of the landlord. We hope and trust that due attention would be paid by all courts to ensure speedy disposal of eviction cases."

5. On consideration of the arguments advanced by the counsel

for the petitioner and material available on record, this Court feels

that, ends of justice would meet, if the Rent Tribunal, Jaipur

directions to the Rent Tribunal, Jaipur Metropolitan, Jaipur, to
