As per Hon'ble Shri Dhirendra Mishra, J. :-

1. The facts giving rise to this bunch of appeals are that respondent No.2 in all the three cases were inducted as tenant in the suit houses. They filed three separate applications under section 25 of the Act stating therein that they were inducted as tenant by one Lala Nemnath and the respondents 1-a to 1-k are the legal heirs of said Lala Nemnath who was entitled to receive rent. However, the appellant is also claiming that the rent is payable to him as he has received possession of the accommodation by the order of Civil Court and thus they have bona fide doubt as to who is entitled for rent. The land in question is situated at village Dhamtari bearing Khasra No. 816. The appellant preferred a civil suit No. 84-A/ 1985 against Lala Nemnath for declaration, possession and mesne profit which was dismissed by the trial Court. However, in appeal the suit was decreed vide judgment and decree dated 31.7.1990 as per annexure A-I. Second appeal preferred by defendant Lala Nemnath Nanda was also dismissed by the High Court as per annexure A-2. Thereafter, said Lala Nemnath Nanda preferred S.L.P No. (C) No. 6070/1991 before the Supreme
