Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Mar-03-1984

Reported in: 1985(2)BomCR46

B.C. Gadgil, J.1. These two proceedings arise out of a dispute between the landlord and the tenant. The dispute pertains to the question as to whether the orders passed by the tenancy authorities under the Bombay Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1948, directing that the tenant should hand over possession of Serial No. 708/2 situate at Kadamwadi are void and without jurisdiction of the tenancy authorities. In order to understand the controversy, it would be necessary to refer to certain facts over which there cannot be any dispute at this stage. Instead of referring to the parties as the petitioners and the respondents, it would be more convenient to refer to then by names.2.
