Admittedly in order u/s 15(1) DRC Act dt.22/07/09, respondent was directed to pay the rent @ Rs.750/­p.m w.e.f 01/08/08. As petitioner proved that respondent is in arrears of rent w.e.f 01/12/06 hence order passed u/s 15(1) DRC Act on 22/07/09 is required modification. Accordingly order u/s 15(1) DRC Act modified to this effect that respondent is hereby directed to pay the arrears of rent @ Rs.750/­p.m w.e.f 01/12/06 till date (after adjusting the amount of rent already paid by him).
