( 1 ) THE present petition is directed against the Order dated 21st January, 1997 passed by the Additional Rent Controller, Delhi allowing the petition of the respondent under Section 14 (1) (e) of the Delhi Rent Control Act, 1958 (hereinafter referred to as the `act ) and dismissing the objections of the petitioner under Section 25-B of the Act. The learned Additional Rent Controller assessed the bonafide requirement of the respondent by taking into consideration the family of the respondent which comprised of the respondent, his wife, two sons aged 29 and 21 years respectively. The respondent was residing in tenanted premises and required his own premises for use of his residence as well as residence of the family members dependent upon him and no other reasonably suitable accommodation was available. The learned counsel for the petitioner has vehemently argued that the premises were let out not by the respondent but by one person namely Shri B. K. Kundu who also had become owner of the property in the year 1992 when the respondent allegedly executed power of attorney in his favour. This plea is also incorporated in the application for leave to contest in paragrap
