⚖️ Understanding Landlord Rights under Rent Law
🔍 Key Takeaway:
Under the East Punjab Urban Rent Restriction Act, 1949, a petitioner need not prove ownership of the premises to seek a tenant’s eviction. What matters is their status as a landlord.
✅ Important Points:
• Ownership is not mandatory to assert landlord rights under the Act.
• To establish landlord status, the petitioner must provide valid evidence such as:
• 🧾 Rent receipts
• 📝 Rent agreement
• ❌ Failure to prove landlord status through such documents results in dismissal of the eviction petition.
📌 Relevant Provision:
Section 13, East Punjab Urban Rent Restriction Act, 1949 – Grounds for eviction include arrears of rent and personal necessity, but require proof of landlord-tenant relationship.
