    Case Summary: Ejectment Suit No. 180/2024 Decision: The court dismissed the eviction suit filed by the plaintiffs (landlords) against the defendants (occupants of a residential room in Kolkata), finding the suit not maintainable. Key Reasoning: The court held that it has jurisdiction only over eviction suits filed under Section 6 of the West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act, 1997, which requires a landlord-tenant relationship. The plaintiffs sought eviction treating the defendants as illegal occupants/trespassers under Section 2(g) of the Act—a matter beyond the court's jurisdiction—rather than as tenants. The suit was dismissed exparte without costs. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
