Pius C. Kuriakose, J.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
      Under challenge in this revision under Section 20 of the Kerala<\/p>\n
(Buildings (Lease & Rent Control) Act 1965 (Act 2 of 65), is the judgment<\/p>\n
of the Rent Control Appellate Authority, ordering eviction against the<\/p>\n
revision petitioner for the first time under sub-section 3 of Section 11 of<\/p>\n
the Act. The landlady had invoked the ground of arrears of rent also for<\/p>\n
evicting the revision petitioner. Both the authorities have concurrently<\/p>\n
declined eviction under that ground. In the absence of any revision by the<\/p>\n
landlady, in this revision we need be concerned only with the legality,<\/p>\n
regularity and propriety of the eviction order passed by the Appellate<\/p>\n
Authority on the ground under sub-section 3 of Section 11.<\/p>\n
      2. The need projected by the landlady was that her daughter Jolly<\/p>\n
(PW.2) is to be accommodated in this building so that PW.2 who is an<\/p>\n
Engineering Graduate, can use the building for conduct of tuition classes<\/p>\n
for Engineering students.     It was averred that PW.2 is a graduate     in<\/p>\n
Engineering and that she genuinely intends to set up tuition classes for<\/p>\n
engineering students in the building. The bona fides of the need was very<\/p>\n
RCR 168\/2010                          2<\/span><\/p>\n
seriously disputed. It was pointed out that PW.2 is put up at Baroda in<\/p>\n
Gujarat along with her husband, who is a manager in a company, there. It<\/p>\n
was also contended that PW.2 is permanently put up at Baroda. It was<\/p>\n
pointed out that even for her confinement and delivery she did not come<\/p>\n
over to Kavanad – her native place; but only her mother went to Baroda to<\/p>\n
attend on her. The tenant also claimed protection of the second proviso to<\/p>\n
sub-section 3 of Section 11. In the enquiry conducted by the Rent Control<\/p>\n
Court, the evidence consisted of Exts.A1 to A6, B1 and the oral evidence of<\/p>\n
PWs 1 and 2 and CPW.1.         PW.1 was the landlady and CPW.1 was the<\/p>\n
tenant. On evaluating the evidence, the learned Rent Control Court noticed<\/p>\n
that Pw.2 came to Kollam for giving evidence in the case only on the day<\/p>\n
she was examined by the court. The Rent Control Court also noticed that<\/p>\n
delivery of both the children of PW.2 took place at Baroda and not in her<\/p>\n
home village. The court also noticed that no documentary evidence was<\/p>\n
adduced by the landlady to show that her daughter was experienced in<\/p>\n
teaching. On these reasons, it was held that the need is not bona fide.<\/p>\n
However, regarding the tenant’s eligibility for protection under the second<\/p>\n
proviso to Section 11(3), it was held that it is for the tenant to prove that he<\/p>\n
has satisfied the two ingredients.      It was held that the tenant did not<\/p>\n
succeed in doing so. However, eviction under Section 11(3) was declined.<\/p>\n
RCR 168\/2010                          3<\/span><\/p>\n
       3. The learned Appellate Authority considered the appeal preferred<\/p>\n
by the landlady and reappraised the evidence.        The learned Appellate<\/p>\n
Authority would reverse the finding of the Rent Control Court regarding the<\/p>\n
bona fides of the need and ordered eviction after approving the finding<\/p>\n
rendered by the Rent Control Court regarding the tenant’s eligibility for the<\/p>\n
protection under the second proviso to Section 11(3).          The learned<\/p>\n
Appellate Authority was very much impressed by the oral evidence given by<\/p>\n
PWs 1 and 2. On the basis of the documents such as ration card, electoral<\/p>\n
card etc., the learned Authority came to the conclusion that the permanent<\/p>\n
residence of PW.2 was at Kavanad, her home village and not in Baroda. In<\/p>\n
this context, the learned Appellate Authority noticed that the tenant’s<\/p>\n
version that PW.2 seldom comes over to Kavanad is not correct.      Another<\/p>\n
circumstance which weighed with the Rent Control Court to find that the<\/p>\n
need is not bona fide, is that one vacant room was available with the<\/p>\n
landlady.    But according to the Appellate Authority, that room was too<\/p>\n
small to accommodate students and the furniture, which are very much<\/p>\n
necessary for the conduct of tuition centre. On an overall appreciation of<\/p>\n
the evidence adduced on the side of the landlady, the Rent Control<\/p>\n
Appellate Authority came to the conclusion that the need is bona fide.  The<\/p>\n
Appellate Authority, therefore, interfered with the negative order passed by<\/p>\n
RCR 168\/2010                          4<\/span><\/p>\n
the Rent Control Court and ordered eviction under Section 11(3) of the Act.<\/p>\n
       4. In this revision under Section 20 of the Act, the tenant has raised<\/p>\n
various grounds assailing the judgment of the Appellate Authority. Learned<\/p>\n
counsel for the revision petitioner addressed strenuous arguments before us<\/p>\n
on the basis of those grounds. Drawing our attention to the evidence in the<\/p>\n
case, the learned counsel submitted that the conclusions of fact arrived at<\/p>\n
by the Appellate Authority are not supported by materials.            It was<\/p>\n
highlighted that the husband of PW.2 is an employee in a managerial<\/p>\n
position in a reputed company in Baroda and that PW.2 has been happily<\/p>\n
residing with the husband and her two children at Baroda. According to the<\/p>\n
learned counsel, it is highly improbable that PW.2 will come over to<\/p>\n
Kavanad and reside along with her mother for the purpose of conducting<\/p>\n
tuition classes.    There is no documentary evidence on the basis of which,<\/p>\n
it can be held that PW.2 is experienced in taking tuition classes. The<\/p>\n
judgment of the Appellate Authority, according to the learned counsel, is<\/p>\n
illegal, irregular and improper as the same is contrary to the evidence in the<\/p>\n
case.\n<\/p>\n
       5.    All the submissions of the learned counsel for the revision<\/p>\n
petitioner were opposed by the learned counsel for the respondent\/landlady.<\/p>\n
We have very anxiously considered the rival submissions. We have also<\/p>\n
RCR 168\/2010                            5<\/span><\/p>\n
gone through the judgment of the Appellate Authority and the Rent Control<\/p>\n
Court. The question that arises for our decision is whether the judgment of<\/p>\n
the learned Appellate Authority warrants any interference under Section 20<\/p>\n
of the Act. The answer for that question           necessarily has to be in the<\/p>\n
negative. We have made a re-appraisal of the evidence in the case. The<\/p>\n
entire testimony of PW.2, the defacto claimant was read over to us. We<\/p>\n
find that nothing has been brought out in cross examination to shake her<\/p>\n
credit and credibility. True, there is some evidence to hold that the landlady<\/p>\n
is in possession of a vacant building. But there is further evidence which<\/p>\n
shows that the above vacant room is too small to accommodate the students<\/p>\n
attending the tuition classes and the necessary furniture. We enquired of the<\/p>\n
learned counsel for the revision petitioner as to whether the revision<\/p>\n
petitioner is willing to shift his business to that building. The answer was in<\/p>\n
the negative.    If that room is not suitable for the use of the revision<\/p>\n
petitioner, he will not be justified in insisting that the said room is suitable<\/p>\n
for PW.2’s purpose. There may not be any direct evidence regarding the<\/p>\n
bona fide need except the oral version of the person who harbours the need.<\/p>\n
This is a case where both the landlady and her dependant daughter for<\/p>\n
whom the building is sought to be evicted have given evidence . On a re-<\/p>\n
appreciation of the evidence, we are convinced that the view taken by the<\/p>\n
RCR 168\/2010                             6<\/span><\/p>\n
learned Appellate Authority that the above evidence is inspiring, is not<\/p>\n
illegal, irregular or improper.\n<\/p>\n
       6. As regards the protection of the second proviso to Section 11(3),<\/p>\n
we notice that the findings are concurrent and based on evidence.<\/p>\n
Therefore, we find no ground for interference with the judgment of the<\/p>\n
Appellate Authority.      The revision petition is without merit and it is<\/p>\n
accordingly dismissed.\n<\/p>\n
       7. Learned counsel for the revision petitioner made a last appeal for<\/p>\n
grant of at least 18 months time for surrendering vacant possession of the<\/p>\n
building. We do not think that we will be justified in granting such a long<\/p>\n
period. However, we think, in the totality of the circumstances, that there<\/p>\n
is justification in granting time till 15.12.2011 subject to certain conditions.<\/p>\n
       8. The result of this Rent Control Revision Petition is as follows:<\/p>\n
       The Rent Control Revision Petition is dismissed. The eviction order<\/p>\n
is confirmed and the execution is kept in abeyance till 15.11.2011 on the<\/p>\n
following conditions:\n<\/p>\n
       (i) The revision petitioner shall file an affidavit within three weeks<\/p>\n
from today, undertaking as follows:\n<\/p>\n
       (a) that he shall surrender vacant possession of the building to the<\/p>\n
respondent herein on or before 15.11.2011, (b) that he shall discharge<\/p>\n
RCR 168\/2010                           7<\/span><\/p>\n
arrears of rent if any, within two months from today and (c) he shall pay at<\/p>\n
the rate of Rs. 1,000\/- per month towards occupational charges of the<\/p>\n
building with effect from 1.12.2010 without any default. In the event of<\/p>\n
filing the affidavit as above and honouring the undertaking, the trial<\/p>\n
court\/execution court shall keep the order of eviction in abeyance till<\/p>\n
15.11.2011.    On proof of breach of any of the above conditions, the<\/p>\n
respondents are at liberty to get the order of eviction executed at once.<\/p>\n
