IN THE SUPREME COURT
OF INDIA CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CIVIL APPEAL NO.347 OF 2009 (Arising out
of SLP(C) No.29807 of 2008) KAMAL RAJ BANSAL ...APPELLANT (S) VERSUS ORDER
Leave granted.
In this case the Rent
Controller has refused to grant leave to defend, hence this Civil Appeal is
filed by the tenant.
We have gone through
the records. We are satisfied that the leave has been rightly rejected.
However, from such rejection it does not follow that the landlord has not to
prove the ingredients of Section 13B of East Punjab Urban Rent Restriction Act,
1949. We may also add that the appellant herein would have right to
cross-examine the landlord in pending proceedings.
Subject to above, we
dismiss the appeal and direct the Rent Controller to decide the case as
expeditiously as possible, preferably within nine months from today.
There shall be no
order as to costs.
