The Financial Commissioner Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE petitioner and the private respondents are landlord and tenant in relation to the property.

The ground of eviction was alleged default in payment of rent from Rabi 1981 to Kharif 1983.

(2.) WHEN the Assistant Collector dismissed the ejectment application, the Collector reversed the decision and ordered ejectment.

The ultimate order that prevailed was of the Financial Commissioner who held that the rent had not been paid. It is this order that remains for consideration before this court.

(3.) THE writ petition is disposed of with the above observations.
