Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Nov-14-2003

Reported in: 2004(1)AWC505

S.U. Khan, J.1. This is tenants writ petition. Landlords/respondents 1 to 4 filed a suit for ejectment against the tenant/petitioner after terminating his tenancy through notice under Section 106, T.P. Act on the ground that Rent Control Act (U.P. Act No. 13 of 1972) was not applicable, as the building had been constructed less than 10 years before filing of the suit, i.e., in the year 1991. Suit was filed in the year 1997 being S.C.C. Suit No. 212 of 1997. The tenant pleaded that the building was quite old, that the landlord had purchased the same in the year 1987 and that only minor repair was carried out in 1991, hence the building could not be said to be newly constructed in the year 1991. The landlord also pleaded that an agreement was entered into in between the parties which was recorded in writing on 8.4.1991. The copy of the said agreement is Annexure-12 to the writ petition.

Dr. Anil Kumar Agarwal Vs. Union of India (Uoi) and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Nov-14-2003

Reported in: [2004]266ITR207(All)

M. Katju J.1. Heard learned counsel for the parties.2. The petitioner has challenged the impugned notice dated October 13, 2003, which asks the petitioner to attend the office of the Deputy Director, Income-tax, Agra, and produce certain books of account of his business and some other material. In our opinion this notice does not cause any prejudice to the petitioner.3. It is well settled that writ jurisdiction is a discretionary jurisdiction and it will not be exercised unless the petitioner shows not only violation of law but also that there was some prejudice against him. Merely by showing violation of law he will not succeed.4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that under Section 131(1A) the officer who issued the notice must show the reason why he has issued the notice, and no such reason has been mentioned in the impugned notice. Be that as it may, we are not inclined to exercise our discretion under article 226 of the Constitution in this case, since, in our opinion, th...

The main point involved in this case is whether petitioner can be treated to be landlord of the building in dispute and entitled to file release application under Section 21 of U. P. Act No. 13 of 1972 even though he is not the owner. Prescribed authority decided the question in favour of the petitioner.3. Petitioner had filed release application under Section 21 of U. P.
