DEBESH DAS vs SHAMSHER ALAM — 11/2026

Summary: The court rejected the defendants' application filed under Section 7(2) of the West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act, holding that Section 7(2) is not applicable to suits purely filed under Section 2(g) of the Act. The court found that since this eviction suit was originally instituted under Section 2(g) (against legal heirs of a deceased tenant after 5 years), the tenant's protective rights under Section 7(2) do not apply. Consequently, the related Section 7(1) application and the amendment application under Section 151 CPC were also disposed of, with the case fixed for framing of issues on 28.04.2026. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
