Sh.Jaspal Singh Uppal vs Bajrang Bali Singh on 25 February, 2020
In the present proceedings, it is not
even the case of the tenant (deceased Mukand Singh) that he had
obtained 'written consent' of the landlady to subĀlet the shop to his son
Joginder Singh. On the contrary, his assertion that the property was
taken by him for his son was not believed. Hence, order of eviction
cannot be held illegal as the doctrine of waiver cannot be applied. A
bald plea of waiver cannot defeat statutory provision made in larger
public interest [Vide M/s Shalimar Tar Products Ltd. v. H.C. Sharma
