The tenant was also told that he could not suggest ways in which his landlady might use her space.<\/p>\n<p>Additional Civil Judge M.P. Singh&#8217;s order came as a relief to Femida Begum who had sought the court&#8217;s intervention for the eviction of her tenant Mohammad Ahmed.<\/p>\n<p>Begum is 80 percent handicapped. She owns a building with two floors and lives on the first floor with her two daughters and son Firoz.<\/p>\n<p>One of the woman&#8217;s daughters, Farhana Khan, 28, is unmarried and unemployed. Begum had told the court that she would like her daughter to open a tailoring shop on the ground floor, occupied by Ahmed, which would provide Farhana employment and also offer the family a source of income.<\/p>\n<p>There are two shop spaces on the ground floor of the building, one occupied by Ahmed and another serving as a guest room.<\/p>\n<p>Ahmed has been the woman&#8217;s tenant since 1998, paying a monthly rent of Rs.1,000, excluding the cost of electricity and water.<\/p>\n<p>The court directed Ahmed to vacate Begum&#8217;s house, saying she required her space.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The petitioner is a widow, 80 percent handicapped, suffering from various ailments. She requires the shop to settle her daughter Farhana for running a ladies&#8217; tailoring shop from there so that the petitioner can have some support in the evening of her life,&#8221; judge Singh said.<\/p>\n<p>The court took note of the woman&#8217;s problem and said she has no other residential premises or shop except her own house.<\/p>\n<p>She needs income for medical treatment, food, medicines and other facilities, the court said, turning down Ahmed&#8217;s plea that the woman use other vacant parts of the house for the shop.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The tenant cannot suggest ways regarding the usage of her house. It is for her to determine how best she can make use of the available space,&#8221; the court ruled, instructing the tenant also to ensure that he did not make off with any of the woman&#8217;s possessions.<\/p>\n<p>The court also rejected Ahmed&#8217;s argument that Begum&#8217;s daughter was of marriageable age and would likely shift to her future husband&#8217;s home.<\/p>\n<p>There is no law that a woman, after marriage, is required to reside in her husband&#8217;s house, the court said, adding the daughter might well prefer, in this case, to stay with her widowed and handicapped mother.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The court also pulled up Ahmed for the suggestion that since the daughter wore a purdah she could not be sitting in a shop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The tenant of a 65-year-old handicapped widow in Nizamuddin, New Delhi, was served eviction orders by a Delhi court Saturday.
