3. Thereafter, after recording of the evidence of the landlord and tenant as well as the sub-tenant, the learned Rent Tribunal allowed the eviction application vide its order dated 25.09.2018. Being aggrieved by the order dated 25.09.2018 passed by the learned Rent Tribunal, the Sub-tenant filed the appeal before the learned Rent Appellate Tribunal, Ajmer, which was dismissed by the learned Appellate Rent Tribunal vide its order dated 21.04.2022. Hence, this writ petition has been filed by the petitioner challenging the order dated 21.04.2022.
4. Mr. M.M. Ranjan, learned Senior Counsel appearing on behalf of the Sub-tenant submits that the petitioner is not a sub-tenant or tress-passer in the property rather he has purchased the property in dispute by oral agreement made in the year 1989. Learned Senior Counsel further submits that the sale deed was also executed with regard to disputed premises in the year 2014 by the Power of Attorney Holder of the landlords. Learned Senior Counsel further submits that the learned Rent Tribunal has wrongly decided the issue No.5 with regard to sub-tenancy in favour of the landlord and findings given by the learned Rent Tribunal on the issues with regard to arrears of the rent is also perverse as the petitioner had purchased the property in dispute and thereafter, he has constructed the house over the said property. Learned Senior Counsel further submits that the learned Rent Tribunal has wrongly applied the explanation to Section 9 E of the RENT CONTROL ACT , 2001 (hereinafter to be referred as "The Act of 2001"). Learned Senior Counsel further submits that the Civil Suit with regard to cancellation of the sale deed is pending and till decision of the said suit
