Jagjit Singh Vs. District Magistrate, Kanpur and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Dec-21-1955

Reported in: AIR1956All486

Mootham, C.J. 1. I agree, but as we are differing from Bhargava J. I desire to state briefly my reasons for so doing.2. The two important questions in this case are, firstly, whether the proviso which appears at the foot of Sub-section (1) of Section 7-A is limited in its application to that sub-section, and, secondly, whether the Rent Control and Eviction Officer could by his order dated 22-12-1952, revoke his earlier order of the 6-11-1952.3. The proviso is in these terms:'Provided that no order under this section shall be passed if the District Magistrate is satisfied that there has been undue delay or it is otherwise inexpedient to do so.'The proviso in terms empowers the District Magistrate to refrain from passing any order which he is empowered to make under Section 7-A if he think it inexpedient to do so, and the only difficulty in giving full effect to the proviso is due to the fact that it has been placed after Sub-section (1). I do not however think that this is a sufficient ...
