He sought to evict the<\/p>\n<p>respondent tenant on the ground of arrears of rent, and<\/p>\n<p>bonafide need for own occupation. The ground of arrears of<\/p>\n<p>rent does not survive for consideration. The need projected<\/p>\n<p>in the context of sub-section 3 of Section 11 was that the<\/p>\n<p>building is required bonafide for occupation by his son Abdul<\/p>\n<p>Rahoof so that he can start a business in furniture. It was<\/p>\n<p>averred that Sri. Abdul Rahoof is unemployed and is without<\/p>\n<p>any means of livelihood. Bonafides of the claim was disputed<\/p>\n<p>by the respondent who also contended that the Rent Control<\/p>\n<p>Petition is liable to fail by virtue of the first proviso to Section<\/p>\n<p>11(3). It was also contended that the tenant is entitled to the<\/p>\n<p>protection of the second proviso to Section 11(3) and for that<\/p>\n<p>reason also the Rent Control Petition is liable to be dismissed<\/p>\n<p>even if the need is found to be bonafide. Evidence before the<\/p>\n<p>Rent Control Court consisted of Ext.A1 &amp; A2, B1 property tax<\/p>\n<p>assessment register pertaining to building having door<\/p>\n<p>Nos.239 &amp; 240 belonging to the landlord, Ext.X1 and the oral<\/p>\n<p>RCR.172\/05-D<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_1\">                                 2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>evidence of PW1 the landlord, PW2 Abdul Rahoof and PW3<\/p>\n<p>the tenant in occupation of building No.239. On the side of<\/p>\n<p>the tenant his brother was examined as RW1. The Rent<\/p>\n<p>Control Court on evaluating the evidence on record came to<\/p>\n<p>the conclusion that the need was not bonafide. It was also<\/p>\n<p>held on the basis of Ext.B1 that landlord was having vacant<\/p>\n<p>position of two building and therefore Rent Control Petition<\/p>\n<p>was liable to be dismissed. The Rent Control Court however<\/p>\n<p>did not consider the tenant&#8217;s eligibility for the protection of<\/p>\n<p>the second proviso to Section 11(3). Ultimately the Rent<\/p>\n<p>Control Court dismissed the RCP. The appellate authority<\/p>\n<p>re-appraised the evidence and concurred with the conclusion<\/p>\n<p>of the Rent Control Court as regards to the bonafide of the<\/p>\n<p>needs and also as regards to the operation of the first proviso<\/p>\n<p>to Section 11(3).     That authority, however, on analysing<\/p>\n<p>evidence came to the conclusion that the tenant is not<\/p>\n<p>entitled for second proviso to Section 11(3). However in<\/p>\n<p>view of the earlier findings the appellate authority dismissed<\/p>\n<p>the appeal.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_3\">      2.   In this revision, various grounds are raised<\/p>\n<p>assailing the judgment of the appellate authority and we<\/p>\n<p>have heard submissions of Mr. Sajid, learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>appellant and those of Mr.K. Babu, learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>RCR.172\/05-D<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_1\">                                3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>respondent.     Mr.Sajid has drawn our attention to the<\/p>\n<p>evidence of PW3 and that of RW1. According to counsel it<\/p>\n<p>was clear from these two depositions that building No.239 is<\/p>\n<p>under occupation of the tenant and that the building No.240<\/p>\n<p>is too small for PW2 to occupy. Findings of the court below<\/p>\n<p>in the context of first proviso to Section 11(3) is highly<\/p>\n<p>improper. Learned counsel submitted that PW1 and PW2<\/p>\n<p>have uniformly stated that the son of PW2 is without any<\/p>\n<p>business of his own and that he needs genuinely to do<\/p>\n<p>business so that he can have his own independent income.<\/p>\n<p>Learned counsel further submitted on the basis of RW1&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>testimony that RW1 confessed that he had no documents to<\/p>\n<p>prove the contention that PW2 was having any interest in the<\/p>\n<p>sawmill business which belongs to his father only. All the<\/p>\n<p>above submissions of the learned counsel were opposed by<\/p>\n<p>Mr.Babu who supported judgment of the appellate authority.<\/p>\n<p>Mr.Babu submitted that PW1 had filed earlier Rent Control<\/p>\n<p>Petition in respect of another room urging the bonafide need<\/p>\n<p>of his daughter. In that case while examined as PW1 he had<\/p>\n<p>stated very clearly that PW2 in the present case is<\/p>\n<p>conducting the sawmill business. In the teeth of such an<\/p>\n<p>admission it was for PW1 and 2 to prove that PW2 is no<\/p>\n<p>longer conducting the sawmill. The learned counsel also<\/p>\n<p>RCR.172\/05-D<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_2\">                                4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>referred to Ext.B1 and submitted that B1 is a document as<\/p>\n<p>envisaged by Section 26 of Act 2 of 1965. Therefore it is<\/p>\n<p>obligatory on the part of the landlord to have taken out a<\/p>\n<p>commission and have proved that the building having door<\/p>\n<p>No.239 is not vacant and also that building No.240 is<\/p>\n<p>unsuitable for PW2&#8217;s purpose. Learned counsel would attack<\/p>\n<p>the findings of the appellate authority that the tenant is not<\/p>\n<p>entitled for protection to second proviso to sub-section 3 of<\/p>\n<p>Section 11.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_4\">      3.   We    have   very   anxiously   considered    rival<\/p>\n<p>submissions. We do not find any illegality, irregularity or<\/p>\n<p>impropriety in the decision of the authorities below that the<\/p>\n<p>need is not bonafide. Such a decision was entered mainly<\/p>\n<p>relying on the circumstance that PW1 had admitted in<\/p>\n<p>previous case that it is his son PW1 who is conducting<\/p>\n<p>sawmill. PW2 is evidently at least assisting his father. When<\/p>\n<p>the father himself had submitted that PW2 is conducting<\/p>\n<p>sawmill it is for PW1 and 2 to prove by adducing cogent<\/p>\n<p>evidence that PW2 has nothing to do with the sawmill<\/p>\n<p>business.    It should be remembered that the need is<\/p>\n<p>projected in such a manner that PW2 is totally unemployed<\/p>\n<p>without any avocation for life. We do not find any illegality<\/p>\n<p>or impropriety warranting interference with the above<\/p>\n<p>RCR.172\/05-D<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_3\">                                   5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>findings of the Appellate Authority which is to the effect that<\/p>\n<p>need is not bonafide since PW2 is not conducting sawmill. At<\/p>\n<p>the same time we are unable to approve the findings of the<\/p>\n<p>Appellate Authority that the Rent Control Petition is liable to<\/p>\n<p>be fail because of the availability of building Nos.239 and<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_5\">240. As for building No.240 RW1 himself stated that the said<\/p>\n<p>building is not suitable for his purpose in view of the<\/p>\n<p>smallness of its size. It is furniture business that is proposed<\/p>\n<p>to be conducted by PW2. If door No.240 is not suitable for<\/p>\n<p>the purpose of the tenant who is conducting motor winding<\/p>\n<p>business, we have no difficulty to accept argument of<\/p>\n<p>Mr.Sajid that the same cannot be suitable for conducting<\/p>\n<p>furniture also.   As for door No.239 we notice that RW1<\/p>\n<p>himself admitted that 6 years prior to Rent Control Petition<\/p>\n<p>the said building was in occupation of a tenant. Under the<\/p>\n<p>above circumstances we are not able to approve the findings<\/p>\n<p>of the first proviso to Section 11(3). We hold that if need is<\/p>\n<p>bonafide, the RCP is not liable to be dismissed in view of the<\/p>\n<p>first proviso to Section 11(3).\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_6\">      4.   As for the finding of the Appellate Authority that<\/p>\n<p>the tenant is not entitled to protection of the second proviso<\/p>\n<p>to Section 11(3) we notice that the above finding is only to be<\/p>\n<p>approved in the light of the Full Bench decision of this court<\/p>\n<p>RCR.172\/05-D<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_4\">                                 6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>in <a href=\"\/doc\/418143\/\" id=\"a_1\">Francis v. Sreedevi Varassiar<\/a> (2003 (2) KLT 230<\/p>\n<p>(F.B) and we approve that finding.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_7\">      5.   The result of the above discussions is that the<\/p>\n<p>Rent Control Revision is liable to be fail. But we notice that<\/p>\n<p>the rent of Rs.280\/- which is being paid by the respondent to<\/p>\n<p>the revision petitioner for the petition schedule building<\/p>\n<p>which is situated in an important locality of Kannur Muncipal<\/p>\n<p>Town is very low. Having considered the importance of the<\/p>\n<p>locality we feel that we are inclined to refix the rent at<\/p>\n<p>Rs.1,000\/- per mensum prospectively with effect from<\/p>\n<p>1.2.2010. Accordingly we refix the rent. The respondent will<\/p>\n<p>be liable to pay monthly rent to the revision petitioner at the<\/p>\n<p>rate of Rs.1,000\/- per mensum with effect from 1.2.2010. We<\/p>\n<p>make it clear that such refixation is tentative only. It is open<\/p>\n<p>to both sides to move Rent Control Court for refixation of fair<\/p>\n<p>rent. Parties are directed to suffer their costs.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_8\">                           PIUS C.KURIAKOSE, JUDGE.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_9\">\n<p>                          C.K.ABDUL REHIM, JUDGE.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_10\">okb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court V.C.
