Fair Rent Fixation case
2 years ago
I have filed a petition for fair rent in 2014 at Additional Rent Controller, Judges court, Alipur, Kolkata. The opposite party is my tenant, who was paying a monthly rent of Rs. 500. As for fair rent of Rs. 1600, I filed the petition. The matter is still sub-judice at the hearing stage, since 3 years as of date. It has been discovered after searching rent records that the opposite party has not deposited even a single month's rent with the Rent controller since the matter is in court. Now, my query is, could I file an eviction suit simultaneously, on the ground that he is a defaulter since 2014 and has not deposited any rent with the Rent controller when the matter of fair rent is sub-judice with the Additional Rent Controller?
As per the facts mentioned, you can file an eviction suit in the high court.
Thank you!
A.Dear Sir,
You may approach High Court and get early disposal order.
