empowered with the power of Appellate Authority under the Act who had the
jurisdiction to hear the appeal. It was decided that "it can be said that the
order setting aside ex-parte proceedings against the tenant was passed by the
Rent Controller under the Act. As observed earlier, such an order was passed
