A. Duraiswami vs A. Arumugham on 21 March, 1997
Further, in the judgment reported in 1997(2) MLJ 401, in the case of
A.Duraiswami vs. A.Arumugham, the alleged act of waste was that the tenant has
damaged the door in front of the shop and replaced the same with a new door
frame without the consent of the landlord and that act was not considered as act
of waste by the learned Judge. But in this case, the act complained is very
serious and the tenant has changed the Madras terrace portion which is very firm
and stable and replaced the same with tin sheet roof and which definitely would
affect the utility as well as caused damages to the building.
