S. M. Kunjumoideen v. Kadormoora Hassan Beevi (dead) And Others

(Supreme Court Of India)

Civil Appeal No. 428 Of 1984 | 08-02-1994

The only point that is urged in this civil appeal is after Kerala Act 2 of 1965 came into force, the earlier sub-letting cannot be a ground for eviction. We are unable to agree. As rightly held by the High Court the corresponding provision of 1959 Act would take care of the sub-letting even prior to 1965. There are no merits in this civil appeal. The appeal is dismissed. No costs.
