Order 1 Rule 10 CPC | Tenant Cannot Compel Impleadment of Co-Owners in Eviction Petition Under East Punjab Urban Rent Restriction Act : Punjab & Haryana HC
The Punjab & Haryana High Court ruled that a tenant cannot force the inclusion of alleged co-owners in an eviction petition under the East Punjab Urban Rent Restriction Act, 1949. The court held that only the landlord-tenant relationship is relevant in such proceedings, and title disputes must be resolved separately, reinforcing the limited scope of Order 1 Rule 10 CPC in rent control matters.
