N.P. Gupta, J.1. This is defendant's second appeal in a suit for eviction of shop on the ground of reasonable and bonafide necessity of the plaintiff decreed by both the learned court below. Of course the suit was also filed on the ground of default but then the defendant was given benefit of Section 13(6) of the Rajasthan Premises (Control of Rent and Eviction) Act, 1950 (hereinafter after referred to as 'the Act'). Hence, I need not refer to facts.2. A perusal of the judgments and decree shows that the question of reasonable and bonafide necessity and comparative hardship is covered by issues No. 2, 2A and 3 which was decided by the learned courts below against the defendant. In the pleadings no indication was even given from either side as to 'whether no hardship would be caused either to the tenant or to the landlord by passing a decree in respect of a part of the premises only', (such expression shall hereinafter referred to as 'partial eviction').'

Reported in: AIR2001Raj49; 2001(1)WLN17

Ar. Lakshmanan, C.J. 1. Since common questions of law arise in all these writ petitions and, therefore, they have been heard together and are being disposed of by a common order. 2. In this case, there is no dispute that all the permits were surrendered by the vehicle operators and they were accepted or received by the concerned authorities. Once the Registration Certificates were surrendered and were in fact with the Department, the vehicles could not be plied on the roads. Therefore, in our opinion, the vehicle operators are entitled for remission of tax for the period of surrender irrespective of the period mentioned in Section 4B of the Rajasthan Motor Vehicles Taxation Act, 1951. 3. The supreme Court in a very recent judgment reported in State of Gujarat v. Kaushikbhai K. Patel (2000) 6 SRJ 310 : (AIR 2000 SC 2175) in an identical matter held that insistence to satisfy the State Govt. or authorised Officer as to reasons beyond control of registered owner or person in possession fo...

ORDERBalia, J.1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners.(2). The petitioners challenge the non-acceplance of option given by petitioner Bhanwar Singh for surrendering the land to the extent declared surplus which has not been accepted by the respondent because Bhanwar Singh opted to surrender that land in respect of which transfer made by him had not been recognised for the purposes of computing the land held by him under the Ceiling Act.(3). It was contended by the learned counsel for the petitioners that the lands 'which have been transferred but such transfers have not been recognised for the ceiling purposes in computing the lands held by Bhanwar Singh, the same cannot be considered to be an encumbered land within the meaning of Sec. 30-E of the Rajasthan Tenancy Act and, therefore, the respondents are bound to accept the opinion given by him for surrendering such land.(4).

Court: Rajasthan

Decided on: Aug-11-2000

Reported in: [2003(97)FLR747]; (2001)ILLJ1593Raj; 2001(1)WLN346

B.J. Shethna, J.1. From the operative part of the order passed by the learned single Judge dated March 10, 2000 in the writ petition modifying the award passed by the Labour Court, it is clear that the said order was passed by the learned single Judge with the consent of the learned Counsel for the parties.2. Once the award was modified on the consent of the parties, then in our considered opinion, it is not open for the appellant to challenge the same by way of special appeal.3. However, learned Counsel for the appellant Mr. Lodha submitted that he had only consented for 30% of the back-wages and not regarding reinstatement.4, If it is so, then in our considered opinion, the appellant should approach the learned single Judge by way of review of his Lordship's order in view of the Hon'ble Supreme Court's judgment in the case of State of Makarashtra v. Ramdas Shrinivas Nayak AIR 1982 SC 1249 : 1982 (2) SCC 463.5. If the appellant files review petition within one month from today along w...
