#eviction of tenant

Andhra Pradesh High Court rules that under the proviso to Section 29 of the Endowments Act, a Managing Trustee of a religious institution with annual income below Rs. 2 lakhs can legally act as an Executive Officer, even without formal appointment. This holding validates eviction proceedings initiated by the trustee, reinforcing the statutory flexibility for smaller trusts.

Bombay HC Aurangabad Bench upholds eviction under Section 23 of the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999, ruling that a landlord's bona fide requirement for personal use is valid even if they own other joint family properties. The court clarified that mere ownership of alternate properties does not negate the landlord's right to eviction, setting a precedent for landlord-tenant disputes in Maharashtra.
