#Section 22

Allahabad High Court rules that tenants seeking protection under U.P. Act No. 13 of 1972 must substantiate pre-1985 construction with documentary proof, not mere assertions. The judgment reinforces the burden of proof on tenants in rent control disputes, impacting eviction proceedings across Uttar Pradesh.

The Bombay High Court has ruled that Section 22(1) of the Apprentices Act, 1961 does not create an automatic right to absorption into regular service, even if vacancies exist. Employers are under no legal obligation to hire apprentices as permanent staff unless the apprenticeship agreement explicitly guarantees employment, significantly limiting claims by trainees in public sector undertakings.
