ORDER1. Learned Counsel for respondent not present. Mr. Mahesh for petitioner is heard. 2. Despite grant of sufficient opportunity no material is brought on record by the learned Counsel for respondent showing that the execution of the Consumer Forum's award in question was taken on the file of the Court below pursuant to its transfer by the concerned Consumer Forum. Therefore, as things stand on the material on record, it transpires that the execution of the award of the Mangalore District Consumer Forum was independently initiated by respondent in Execution Case No. 130 of 1996 on the file of the Court of the learned Principal Civil Judge (Junior Division), Karkala. The validity of the execution proceeding so initiated in the Civil Court by respondent, holder of the said award, is assailed by the petitioner judgment-debtor on the ground that any such award cannot be independently executed before any Civil Court and that it could be done so only on transfer of the award made by the co...

ORDER1. These two writ petitions filed challenging the constitutional validity of Section 14(6) and Section 14 of the Karnataka Rent Control Act, 1961 thereinafter called the 'Act'), are consolidated for the purpose of disposal by a common order.2. In W.P. No. 9499 of 1988 the constitutional validity of Section 14(6) of the Act is challenged on the ground that the provision is arbitrary, and has, in any event, after a long lapse of time, become unrelated to the realities of life and cannot be sustained. In W.P. No. 22249 of 1990 the validity of Section 14 of the Act is challenged on the same ground that the determination of the fair rent in relation to a situation existing as on 1947, has by lapse of time, become arbitrary and is productive of negative income to the landlord.3. Section 14 of the Act reads as follows:'Section 14. Fixation of fair rent etc.-(1) The landlord or tenant of any building, other than a building in respect of which the fair rent has been fixed either before or ...
