             The petitioners-landlord filed rent petition under Section 13 of<\/p>\n
the Haryana Urban (Control of Rent and Eviction) Act, 1973 (in brevity<\/p>\n
the Act, 1973), seeking eviction of the respondent-tenant from the house in<\/p>\n
dispute, bearing Municipal No. D-571, situated at Dhani Chejran, Bhiwani.<\/p>\n
Chander Kalan-Petitioner No. 1, is the landlady, while petitioner No. 2-<\/p>\n
Rajesh Kumar, is the son of petitioner No. 1.           The eviction of the<\/p>\n
respondent was sought, mainly, on two grounds; firstly,       non-payment of<\/p>\n
rent, and secondly, for the bona fide use and occupation of the house in<\/p>\n
dispute by petitioner No. 2, Rajesh Kumar.            The rent petition was
\n Civil Revision No. 569 of 2008                                         2<\/span><\/p>\n
dismissed by the Rent Controller, Bhiwani, vide order dated 02.12.2004.<\/p>\n
The petitioners, thereafter, preferred an appeal against the aforesaid order<\/p>\n
dated 02.12.2004, passed by the Rent Controller, Bhiwani before the<\/p>\n
Appellate Authority, Bhiwani, which was also dismissed vide order dated<\/p>\n
10.10.2007. The petitioners have, therefore, filed the present revision,<\/p>\n
challenging the order dated 02.12.2004 passed by the Rent Controller,<\/p>\n
Bhiwani, order dated 10.10.2007 passed by the learned Appellate Court,<\/p>\n
Bhiwani, as also the order dated 10.10.2007 passed by the lower Appellate<\/p>\n
Court, dismissing the application filed under Order 41 Rule 27 CPC filed<\/p>\n
by the petitioners for leading additional evidence.<\/p>\n
            While impugning the order passed by the Rent Controller and<\/p>\n
the concurrent findings recorded by the lower Appellate Court, the learned<\/p>\n
counsel for the petitioners submitted that both the Courts below misread<\/p>\n
the evidence while deciding their bone fide requirements of the premises.<\/p>\n
The Courts below failed to peruse the pleadings and the statements of PW-<\/p>\n
1 and PW-3 in their true perspective and did not appreciate that the<\/p>\n
petitioners have clearly mentioned in their pleadings that the family of<\/p>\n
petitioner No. 1, consists of four members excluding petitioner No. 2 (her<\/p>\n
son) and his wife whom he had married 1 and \u00bd years back from the date<\/p>\n
of the filing of the petition before the learned trial Court, i.e. before<\/p>\n
28.09.2001. Meaning thereby, the petitioners consisted of 6 members at<\/p>\n
the time of the filing of the petition and failed to notice that PW-1 in his<\/p>\n
affidavit stated that they are now 7 members in all, as a child was also born<\/p>\n
subsequently.\n<\/p>\n
            Counsel for the respondent, on the other hand, argued that
\n Civil Revision No. 569 of 2008                                              3<\/span><\/p>\n
petitioners had three houses. He was earlier a tenant of one of the houses,<\/p>\n
which the petitioners sold subsequently. He agreed to shift to the present<\/p>\n
house in order to make it convenient for the landlord-petitioners to sell the<\/p>\n
house, in which he was earlier residing as tenant. Presently also, petitioner<\/p>\n
No. 2 was residing in a separate house from the one, which was sought to<\/p>\n
be vacated from the respondent. Hence, the petitioners do not require the<\/p>\n
house and there is no bona fide requirement of the premises in dispute.<\/p>\n
            After hearing the learned counsel for the parties and having<\/p>\n
perused the record, evidence and pleadings of the case, I find merit in the<\/p>\n
arguments raised by the learned counsel for the petitioners.<\/p>\n
            The present is a case of rent revision. While challenging the<\/p>\n
finding recorded by the Appellate Court, the attention of the Court was<\/p>\n
invited to the findings recorded by the Rent Controller, which were later on<\/p>\n
upheld by the lower Appellate Court in para-11 of its judgment, as under:-<\/p>\n
             ” In the present case, Chander Kalan sold another house<\/p>\n
             before letting out the house in question to the<\/p>\n
             respondent. It was admitted by PW1 that previously the<\/p>\n
             respondent was residing in their other house.     It is also<\/p>\n
             admitted by him that the said house was sold and<\/p>\n
             thereafter the house in question was let out to the<\/p>\n
             respondent. As per his statement the house in question<\/p>\n
             was let out to the respondent in the year 1995. It shows<\/p>\n
             that they have sold the property after enforcement of the<\/p>\n
             Act, 1949. It is no where alleged by the petitioners that<\/p>\n
             PW1 Rajesh Kumar was married or his children were
\n Civil Revision No. 569 of 2008                                           4<\/span><\/p>\n
             born after     letting the house in question to the<\/p>\n
             respondent. It shows that when the previous house was<\/p>\n
             sold by Chander Kalan the number of the family<\/p>\n
             members was same. Previous house was got vacated by<\/p>\n
             the respondent because the petitioners were willing to<\/p>\n
             sell the same and gave him the house in question on rent.<\/p>\n
             Now, they are seeking his ejectment on the ground of<\/p>\n
             personal necessity. It shows that they are not coming<\/p>\n
             with clean hands.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            The findings recorded by the Appellate Court, as narrated<\/p>\n
above, are contrary to the evidence on record and the same is evident as<\/p>\n
demonstrated below.\n<\/p>\n
            The present premises were admittedly rented out in the year<\/p>\n
1995. In para 5 of the rent petition filed before the Rent Controller, it is<\/p>\n
specifically stated that petitioner No. 2 was married 1 and \u00bd years back.<\/p>\n
The rent petition is dated 28.09.2001, which means that the petitioner No.<\/p>\n
2 got married in the year 1999. Thus, from the pleadings, it is evident that<\/p>\n
petitioner No. 2 got married and a child was born after the house in<\/p>\n
question was rented out to the respondent. This averment in para 5 has not<\/p>\n
been denied in the written statement and nor in their evidence. As such, the<\/p>\n
number of family members increased due to the marriage of petitioner No.<\/p>\n
2, after letting out the present house to the respondent and also after the<\/p>\n
selling of the earlier house, i.e. in the year 1995. Even if, it is to be<\/p>\n
accepted that one of the houses was got vacated from the respondent<\/p>\n
because the petitioners intended to sell the same, it will not come in the
\n Civil Revision No. 569 of 2008                                         5<\/span><\/p>\n
way of the petitioners from seeking ejectment of the respondent from the<\/p>\n
house in question, as at that time, petitioner No. 2 was not married and he<\/p>\n
did not have an extended family of his own and the personal necessity of<\/p>\n
having one’s own residence and a separate accommodation from the other<\/p>\n
family members was not there till petitioner No. 2 got married.         It is<\/p>\n
apparent from the pleadings, as discussed above that petitioner No. 2 got<\/p>\n
married some where in the year 1999, which is definitely after the year<\/p>\n
1995, i.e. the date of the sale of earlier house and renting out the present<\/p>\n
premises.\n<\/p>\n
            The lower Appellate Court in para 12 of its judgment,<\/p>\n
records:-\n<\/p>\n
            “Further, it is alleged in para No. 5 of the petition that they<\/p>\n
            were four members in the family. The names of the members<\/p>\n
            are not mentioned therein. But PW-3 stated that there were<\/p>\n
            seven members in the family. It was stated by him that two<\/p>\n
            daughters and another son of Chander Kalan were also<\/p>\n
            residing with her. It shows that four members never resided in<\/p>\n
            the house.    More so, PW3 stated in his examination that<\/p>\n
            Rajesh was living in his neighbourhood in a rented house. It<\/p>\n
            means that he is not residing in the house shown in EX.P1<\/p>\n
            along with Chander Kalan. PW3 stated that he is residing in<\/p>\n
            his own house. It shows that reference of rented house is not<\/p>\n
            pertaining to him. It is nowhere alleged that Rajesh Kumar is<\/p>\n
            residing in another house taken on rent.       In this way, the<\/p>\n
            petitioners have failed to prove that their need is bona fide and
\n Civil Revision No. 569 of 2008                                           6<\/span><\/p>\n
             house in question is required for their personal necessity. So<\/p>\n
             these arguments are of no avail. The finding of learned Rent<\/p>\n
             Controller are well reasoned, based on law and facts and<\/p>\n
             cannot be disturbed.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
             The above findings are contradictory and inconsistent and<\/p>\n
also not based on correct perspective.         The fact that it is a rented<\/p>\n
accommodation is obvious from the examination of PW-3, Pardeep Kumar,<\/p>\n
himself, wherein, he has specifically stated that Rajesh Kumar stays in a<\/p>\n
rented accommodation. Therefore, it has been wrongly recorded that there<\/p>\n
is no evidence to show that Rajesh Kumar is residing in another house<\/p>\n
which is taken on rent. Rather, it is clear that the accommodation to which<\/p>\n
Rajesh Kumar has shifted is on rent and presently, there is no other house<\/p>\n
except in which Rajesh Kumar has a share i.e. house in dispute, which is<\/p>\n
an ancestral house from which the eviction of the respondent is being<\/p>\n
sought. There is no rebuttal to the evidence of PW-3 that the family<\/p>\n
consists of seven members, namely, Chander Kalan, mother, who is an<\/p>\n
elder lady, Rajesh Kumar, who is petitioner No. 2 and a married man, two<\/p>\n
grown up sisters, one brother aged about 19 years, Rajesh Kumar’s wife<\/p>\n
and his minor son. Thus, there is no doubt that there are seven members in<\/p>\n
all. It is also clear from the site plan, EX P-1, that it comprised of only one<\/p>\n
room and one verandah, which is insufficient and absolutely against the<\/p>\n
aesthetic   sense of    any human being, to allow all the seven family<\/p>\n
members of different relationship between each other to stay in one room.<\/p>\n
Thus, to reject the personal necessity of the petitioner No. 2, being married,<\/p>\n
and need of a separate accommodation only on the ground that he has
\n Civil Revision No. 569 of 2008                                         7<\/span><\/p>\n
shifted to a rented accommodation, is totally unfair and unjust, especially<\/p>\n
when there is no       evidence forthcoming as to whether the present<\/p>\n
accommodation, to which petitioner No. 2 has shifted, is also sufficient or<\/p>\n
not. At the same time, an accommodation of one room and a verandah<\/p>\n
available with such a huge family cannot in any way be termed as<\/p>\n
sufficient.   The requirement is, therefore, bona fide and the house in<\/p>\n
question is rightly required by the petitioners for their own personal need,<\/p>\n
which has definitely arisen on account of the marriage of petitioner No. 2.<\/p>\n
              The Courts below fell in error in not relying on the various<\/p>\n
judgments rendered by the Hon’ble Supreme Court, wherein, it is the<\/p>\n
consistent view of the Apex Court that the tenant cannot dictate the terms<\/p>\n
to the land lord and also cannot dictate as to how he should live. It is for<\/p>\n
the landlord to see as to what accommodation is needed by him and his<\/p>\n
family. He is the best judge of his own needs. Thus, I find that the need of<\/p>\n
the petitioners is genuine and the accommodation available with them is<\/p>\n
insufficient. The accommodation available with petitioner No. 2, including<\/p>\n
the rented premises, were not sufficient for his need. There is no evidence<\/p>\n
on record to show that the same was sufficient. Even otherwise, in the<\/p>\n
case of ‘Ramesh Kumar V. Atma Devi’,<\/a> reported as 1985 P.L.R 751 (Full<\/p>\n
Bench), it was held that if landlord is occupying another premises in the<\/p>\n
urban area as tenant, he would be entitled to eject his own tenant, if there<\/p>\n
is sufficient cause for him to vacate the premises in his occupation or the<\/p>\n
same are not sufficient\/suitable for his needs.\n<\/p>\n
              The arguments raised by the learned counsel for the<\/p>\n
respondent that the petitioners had sold another house and it was only,
\n Civil Revision No. 569 of 2008                                           8<\/span><\/p>\n
thereafter, they had filed the eviction petition, does not help in the facts of<\/p>\n
the present case, as the said house, as discussed in the earlier part of this<\/p>\n
judgment, was sold before the filing of the eviction petition and petitioner<\/p>\n
No. 2 got married in the year 1999 and it was only thereafter that the<\/p>\n
present eviction petition was filed.     Even otherwise, Hon’ble Supreme<\/p>\n
Court in a similar situation in the case of ‘C. Karunakaran (dead) by Lrs.<\/p>\n
v. T. Meenakshi, reported as (2005) 13 Supreme Court Cases 99, held as<\/p>\n
under:-\n<\/p>\n
             “6. Counsel for the appellant has contended that the<\/p>\n
             respondent landlady had sold one building two years<\/p>\n
             prior to the examination of the respondent in Court.<\/p>\n
             Sale of such a building demonstrated that the need was<\/p>\n
             not bona fide. Had the need been bona fide then the<\/p>\n
             respondent would not have sold the building of which<\/p>\n
             vacant possession was available. We do not find any<\/p>\n
             substance in this submission. The building had been<\/p>\n
             sold two years prior to the examination of the<\/p>\n
             respondent. Admittedly, on the date of filing the<\/p>\n
             eviction petition, the building was not available to<\/p>\n
             start the business. It has not come on record that the<\/p>\n
             said building was suitable for starting the business. In<\/p>\n
             the absence of any such evidence, it cannot be<\/p>\n
             concluded that the personal necessity pleaded by the<\/p>\n
             respondent was not bona fide. We do not find any<\/p>\n
             infirmity in the findings record by the High Court.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\n Civil Revision No. 569 of 2008                                           9<\/span><\/p>\n
             One of the tests for coming to the conclusion as to whether,<\/p>\n
the expressions employed by different legislation “bona fide requirement”,<\/p>\n
“genuine need” and “requires reasonable and in good faith”, had been laid<\/p>\n
down by Hon’ble the Supreme Court in the case of “Shiv Sarup Gupta V.<\/p>\n
Dr. Mahesh Chand Gupta<\/a>“, reported as (1999)6 SCC 222, wherein it is<\/p>\n
held that requirement in the sense of need felt is an outcome of a sincere,<\/p>\n
honest desire, in contradistinction with a mere pretence or pretext to evict a<\/p>\n
tenant refers to a state of mind prevailing with the landlord. The only way<\/p>\n
of peeping into the mind of the landlord is an exercise undertaken by the<\/p>\n
judge of facts by placing himself in the armchair of the landlord and then<\/p>\n
posing a question to himself- whether in the given facts, substantiated by<\/p>\n
the landlord, the need to occupy the premises can be said to be natural, real,<\/p>\n
sincere, honest. If the answer is in the positive, the need is bona fide.<\/p>\n
Also, the appellate Court, while rejecting the case in the facts of the present<\/p>\n
case probably, was not guided by the same and the findings recorded by it,<\/p>\n
are wholly unreasonable and based on wrong perspective.<\/p>\n
             No doubt, it is true that the Courts below have recorded a<\/p>\n
concurrent finding of fact, but as discussed above, the same are contrary to<\/p>\n
the evidence on record. Under the Act, as applicable to the rent revision,<\/p>\n
the power of this Court is not used in a routine manner. However, in the<\/p>\n
cases where the conclusion recorded by the Courts below are not possible<\/p>\n
to be accepted on the material placed on record, then there is no bar on the<\/p>\n
exercise of such power, as held by Hon’ble the Supreme Court in the case<\/p>\n
of ‘Molar Lal v. Kay Iron Works (P) Ltd.,<\/a> reported as (2000-2) 125 P.L.R.<\/p>\n
678 (S.C.), which reads as under:-\n<\/p>\n
 Civil Revision No. 569 of 2008                                           10<\/span><\/p>\n
            “Similarly, we are of the opinion, on the facts and<\/p>\n
            circumstances of this case, the argument of the tenant that<\/p>\n
            the High Court exceeded its jurisdiction by interfering on<\/p>\n
            a finding of fact arrived at by the appellate authority is<\/p>\n
            also to be rejected. It is to be noticed that under Sub<\/p>\n
            section (6) of Section 15 of the Act, the High Court as a<\/p>\n
            revisional authority has the power to call for and examine<\/p>\n
            the records relating to any order passed or proceedings<\/p>\n
            taken under this Act for the purpose of satisfying itself as<\/p>\n
            to the legality or propriety of such order and is entitled to<\/p>\n
            pass such order as it may deem fit. The power vested in<\/p>\n
            the High Court under the provision of law is much wider<\/p>\n
            than the power conferred on the High Court under Section<\/p>\n
            115 CPC. In the process of satisfying itself as to the<\/p>\n
            legality or propriety of an impugned order, the High Court<\/p>\n
            in a given case can go into the finding of fact arrived at the<\/p>\n
            courts below and, if found necessary, reverse as a finding<\/p>\n
            of fact. Of course this court has in many cases cautioned<\/p>\n
            that this power is not to be used as a revisional court in a<\/p>\n
            routine manner, but to be used only when the revisional<\/p>\n
            court comes to the conclusion that the last court of fact<\/p>\n
            has arrived at a conclusion which is perverse or not<\/p>\n
            possible to be accepted on the materials placed before it.<\/p>\n
            In other words, if the High Court comes to the conclusion<\/p>\n
            that the finding of the first appellate court is based on no
\n Civil Revision No. 569 of 2008                                         11<\/span><\/p>\n
            evidence then in a given case, it is open to the High court<\/p>\n
            to interfere with such finding of fact. In the instant case,<\/p>\n
            we are not convinced that the High court has exceeded its<\/p>\n
            jurisdiction while allowing the revision of the landlord on<\/p>\n
            this count. Therefore, this question urged on behalf of the<\/p>\n
            appellant is also rejected.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            In view of what has been stated and discussed above, while<\/p>\n
allowing the present revision petition, the order dated 02.12.2004 passed<\/p>\n
by the Rent Controller, Bhiwani and order dated 10.10.2007 passed by the<\/p>\n
Appellate Authority, Bhiwani, are set aside and accordingly hold that the<\/p>\n
premises in dispute is a bona fide requirement of the petitioners for their<\/p>\n
own use and occupation. The rent petition filed by the petitioners under<\/p>\n
Section 13 of the Act, 1973, is accordingly allowed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
