JUDGEMENT
S.ABDUL NAZEER,J. -
(1.) Leave granted.
(2.) The appellants herein filed eviction petition against the respondents for their eviction from an area of 200 sq. ft. on the ground floor of
Industrial Shed No. 93, Industrial Area, Ram Darbar, Phase-II, Chandigarh
(hereinafter referred to as 'the premises') under Section 13 of the East
Punjab Urban Rent Restriction Act, 1949 (for short 'the Act'), on the
ground of personal necessity. The respondents filed the written statement
opposing the eviction petition. After conclusion of the evidence of the
appellants, the respondents led their evidence. At this stage,
respondents moved an application seeking amendment of the written
statement for adding the plea that the appellants are not the owners of
the premises and that the sole proprietor of the premises was Smt. Raj
Nanda and that the eviction is not sought for the bona fide necessity of
Smt. Raj Nanda. The appellants are mere attorneys and that they have
projected their own necessity to get the premises vacated from the
respondents.

Court of Punjab and Haryana. The High Court vide common order dated
21.02.2015 set aside the order of the Additional Rent Controller and allowed the amendment application. The appellants have challenged the
legality and correctness of the said order of the High Court in these
appeals.;
