https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=192571 Section 13A-1 of the Bombay Rents, Hotel and Lodging House Rates Control Act, 1947 provides a special and liberal eviction remedy for a member of the armed forces or a retired member on production of the prescribed certificate. The provision requires proof of bona fide need, but it does not import the comparative hardship inquiry under Section 13(2). Its plain language does not justify adding a further condition that the landlord must have originally inducted the tenant into possession while in service. The statutory object is to assist defence personnel in recovering premises bona fide required by them, and the provision is not to be narrowly confined by reading in restrictions not found in the text. en-us Tue, 31 Jan 1984 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 17:50:30 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=192571 Section 13A-1 of the Bombay Rents, Hotel and Lodging House Rates Control Act, 1947 provides a special and liberal eviction remedy for a member of the armed forces or a retired member on production of the prescribed certificate.
