JUDGEMENT

(1.) The tenant-defendant has come up in appeal against the judgment and decree of Sri M. Roy, Subordinate Judge, Purulia, affirming the judgment and decree of ejectment passed by the Munsif, Purulia.

(2.) The respondent commenced a suit for ejectment against the appellant on determination of tenancy, on the grounds of default in payment of rent and reasonable requirement for the purpose of starting business in rice by his two unemployed sons. The appellant held the tenancy consisting of two rooms at a monthly rental of Rs. 45/- according to Bengali calendar month.

(3.) The learned Munsif found that the tenancy had been determined by a valid notice to quit and the plaintiff reasonably required the premises in suit for his own use. Such findings were affirmed in appeal by the learned Subordinate Judge.
