Ex. Const. Badan Singh Vs. Union of India (Uoi) and anr.

Court: Delhi

Decided on: Mar-22-2002

Reported in: 2002VIIIAD(Delhi)553; 97(2002)DLT986; 2002(64)DRJ849

Vikramajit Sen, J.1. Despite the passage of a quarter-century since the AIDS/HIV infection was diagnosed, the stigma that surrounds it has not subsided. The number of persons who have become victims of this affliction has swelled to such staggering sums, that its pestilential proportions have accused a global effort to be made to combat it. However, the prejudice against the victim of AIDS is easily discernible form the indurate stand that is most often taken by the Authority concerned, in terms of its lack of alacrity to grant relief, as also in the extent or amount of relief allowed to the sufferer. The present petition is an example of this apathy, which is the result of a belief that HIV is the consequence of an immoral act. In this case it is admitted that the petitioner's wife is HIV; and that the parties have a child. Innocence, thereforee, loses all relevance.2. The facts in this unfortunate case are that the petitioner was enrolled in the Border Security Force on 12.6.1990. In...

J.D. Kapoor, J.1. An interesting mixed question of law and fact has cropped up for determination in the instant application moved under Order 39 Rule 1 & 2 CPC. The question is whether a person holding an office of a fixed tenure but subject to the fulfillment of the eligibility condition can be allowed to hold the office to complete the tenure in the case he ceases to be eligible for holding that office even for a short while though subsequently by way of re-election becomes eligible for contesting the election of the said office.2. The application seeks stay of the resolution passed by the Managing Committee of defendant no.1-Federation of Indian Export Organisation (in short 'FIEO') in the meeting held on 30.10.2001.

He is thereforee not eligible to hold the Office of President, FIEO unless he is r...

Decided on: Mar-22-2002

Reported in: 2002VIIAD(Delhi)702; 99(2002)DLT775; 2002(62)DRJ686

Vikramajit Sen, J. 1. The avowed intention of the Delhi Rent Control Act 1958, (hereinafter referred to as 'the Act') as contained in its preamble, is to provide for control of rents and evictions in Delhi. It is indeed paradoxical that in the present case the protection of the Act is sought by Shri Uma Shankar Sharma (Respondent/tenant herein) in respect of the tenancy granted to him by Shri Shiv Shankar Rastogi (Petitioner/landlord herein). This in respect of a part of the premises bearing No. 5770, Jogi Wara, Nai Sarak, Delhi. Shri Sharma, who is hereinafter referred to as Tenant, is the himself a landlord, being the owner of residential flat No. 114, First Floor, Chilla Dhallupura, New Delhi by virtue of his being a member of the Leiah Group Housing Society. The Tenant has sought exemption from eviction for a period of ten years by virtue of the provisions of Section 14(1)(hh) of the Act.

Shri Ujjagar Singh Vs. Ms. Iqbal Kaur

Court: Delhi

Decided on: Mar-22-2002

Reported in: 97(2002)DLT646; 2002(62)DRJ7a

Vikramajit Sen, J.1. This Revision is directed against the Judgment of the Additional Rent Controller, (hereinafter referred to as 'ARC') Delhi in a petition filed under Section 14(1)(e) read with Section 25B of the Delhi Rent Control (hereinafter referred as DRC) Act, 1958. The judgment is lucid, well reasoned and had dealt with all the relevant questions that have arisen in these proceedings.2. The facts are that the Appellant's tenancy commenced on permission being granted under Section 21 of the DRC Act. The Petition had been filed by Smt. Lajwanti Devi, the mother of the Respondent Smt. Iqbal Kaur. The uncontrovertable assumption that can be immediately drawn is that late Smt. Lajwanti Devi was the owner of the premises since this factor cannot be assailed by the tenant as he had been placed in possession of the demised premises by her. Secondly, it must also be assumed that the premises were let for residential purposes only. If the purpose of letting was subsequently changed it ...

Decided on: Mar-22-2002

Reported in: 2002VAD(Delhi)61; 97(2002)DLT619; 2002(62)DRJ521

Vikramajit Sen, J. 1. This Revision petition has been filed against the order of the Additional Rent Controller (hereinafter referred to as 'the ARC') against the proceedings initiated under Section 14(1)(e) of the Delhi Rent Control Act. In the impugned Order the ARC has, in the carefully structured judgment, considered all the necessary aspects in the eviction petition for bonafide requirement. The interference of the High Court in its Revisionary jurisdiction is not called for unless the finding of the ARC are perverse, or contrary to an established principles of law. It should be borne in mind that the Legislature has found wisdom in the removal of rights of Appeal, in the interest of an expeditious disposal of claims in the eviction of tenanted premises on the bonafides need of the owner of the premises. 2. The ARC has concluded that the Petitioner/ Landlady, namely, Respondent No. 1 is the owner of the premises in question and has rejected the tenant's averment that her brother w...
