Case History
Case Summary: C.A. No. 670/2001 - Rajinder Dhada v. Jagjit Singh Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal on November 6, 2001, without order as to costs, upholding the High Court's decision to set aside the eviction order. Key Facts & Decision: The landlady (Rajinder Dhada), a nurse, sought to evict her tenant under the East Punjab Urban Rent Restriction Act, 1949, claiming she needed the premises for her sister-in-law's two orphaned children. However, the High Court found that neither child was actually dependent on or ordinarily residing with the landlady—the daughter lived with another sister-in-law and the son was in a hostel. The Court held the requirement failed under Section 13(3)(a)(i)(a) as "family" members must ordinarily live with and be dependent on the landlord. The Court found no merit in the appeal.
