Tenant of the demised premises is before this Court, assailing the order dated 16.07.2025 of ejectment passed by Ld. Rent Controller and order dated 14.08.2025, whereby Ld. Appellate Authority affirmed the said order. 2. Perusal of paper-book would reveal that land-lord Rajinder Deva Yateem Khana Trust and another (respondents herein) filed a petition under Section 13 of the East Punjab Urban Rent Restriction Act, 1949 seeking ejectment of the tenant (petitioner herein) from the demised premises on the ground of non-payment of rent. 3.

However, on the adjourned date i.e. 16.07.2025, the tenant (petitioner herein) failed to tender the provisionally assessed rent and so, by relying upon the law laid down by this Court in Dr. S.S. Mann Vs. A.K. Sharma, 2009(2) CCC 472 and Chand Kumar Ahuja Vs. Gurdarshan Singh Gill, 2012(1) RCR (Rent) 398, the Rent Controller passed the ejectment order. 5. Learned Appellate Authority upheld this order on 14.08.2025, thus, dismissing the appeal of the tenants. 6. Assailing the aforesaid orders, the only submission made by learned counsel for the petitioner herein i.e. tenant is that the petitioner is ready to pay the entire arrears of rent. 7. Mr. Anuj Gupta, Advocate who has put in appearance on behalf of respondents No.1 and 2 has supported the impugned orders and submits that since the tenant failed to make payment of provisionally assessed rent, therefore, he was rightly ordered to be evicted. 8. Having considered the submissions of learned counsel for the parties, this Court does not find any merit in the instant petition. 9. The rent, as provisionally assessed by the Rent Controller on 17.05.2025 was not tendered by the tenant to the landlord on the adjourned date i.e. 16.07.2025. Therefore, in view of the settled legal position explained by Hon’ble Supreme Court in Rakesh Wadhawan’s case (supra), no illegality was committed by the Rent Controller in ordering the ejectment of the petitioner. Learned Appellate Authority has rightly upheld the order. 10. As such, finding no merit in the instant revision petition, the same stands dismissed.
