Tenancy Rights | Non-Party DM Not Liable for Contempt for Failing to Act on Tenant's Representation: Allahabad HC
The Allahabad High Court holds that a District Magistrate cannot be held in contempt for not acting on a tenant's direct representation, as the legal obligation to challenge demolition rests with the property owner. This reinforces that tenants must seek redress through landlords under existing precedent, clarifying the limits of administrative accountability in tenancy disputes.
