Case History
Case Summary: Dwarika Lal v. Kalindi Devi (C.A. No. 917/2002) The Supreme Court allowed both the landlord's and tenant's appeals against the High Court of Jharkhand's judgment. The trial court had decreed the landlord's eviction suit for bona fide need to establish a jewellery business, but the High Court partially modified the order by directing partial ejectment (Schedule A property retained by tenant; Schedules B and C released to landlord). The Supreme Court held that the trial court itself was obligated under Section 11(1)(c) of the Bihar Buildings (Lease, Rent & Eviction) Control Act, 1982 to consider partial ejectment, not the revisional court. The matter was remanded to the trial court to reconsider partial ejectment provisions. No costs awarded. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
