Per contra, Ld. counsel for the respondent has disputed the relationship of
landlord and tenant between the parties and has prayed that no such direction be issued
against the respondent.
It is trite to state that order under Section 15 (1) under DRC Act is to be
passed on the basis of admitted facts only. In the present case, relationship of landlord
and tenant is disputed, therefore, order under Section 15(1) DRC Act can not be passed
at this stage.
Put up for PE / filing of rejoinder on 05.05.2026.
Petitioner is directed to file his evidence by way of affidavit alongwith the
list of witnesses 10 days prior to the NDOH against advance copy to the opposite party.
