KARTICK CHANDRA PANJA Vs. SHUBHAM JAISWAL

JUDGEMENT

(1.) The instant revisional application has been filed inter alia challenging the order dtd. 22/2/2024 passed by the learned Chief Judge, Presidency Small Causes Court at Calcutta in Ejectment Suit No. 227 of 2023, thereby rejecting the application filed by the petitioner under Sec. 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908.

(2.) Mr. Banerjee, learned advocate appearing in support of the aforesaid revisional application after arguing the matter for some time would submit that the application under Sec. 7(2) of the West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act, 1997 (hereinafter referred to as the 'said Act') is yet to be decided. He insists that the aforesaid revisional application may be disposed of by directing the learned Trial Court to hear out and dispose of the application filed under Sec. 7(2) of the said Act.

(3.) Having heard the learned advocates appearing for the respective parties and noting that a point of maintainability has already been raised in relation to the application filed under Sec. 7(2) of the said Act, I am of the view that the learned Trial Court should hear out the point of maintainability raised by the opposite party at the first instance before proceeding with the application filed under Sec. 7(2) of the said Act.
