ORDER :- The Petitioners, who are the landlords, filed R. C. O. P. Nos. 113, 115, 117, 119, 121, 123, 125, 131, 133, 135, 137, 157 and 195 of 1972 before the Rent Controller Madurai (District Munsif, Madurai Town) against various tenants for getting possession of the portions they are occupying. The eviction is prayed for on two grounds (1) Under Ss. 10 (3) (b) and (2), 14 (1) (b) of the Tamil Nadu Buildings (Lease and Rent Control) Act, 1960, Finding that the pleas for eviction the one under Section 10 (3) (b) and the other, under Section 14 (1)

(b) are self-contradictory, the Rent Controller rejected the plea for eviction under Section 10 (3) (b), but ordered eviction under Section 14 (1) (b) on condition that the petitioners (landlords) give the statutory undertaking under Section 14 (2) (b) within a period of one week from the date of the order.

2. Aggrieved by the said order of eviction passed by the Rent Controller, the tenants preferred civil miscellaneous appeals individually,. By a common judgment, the Appellate Authority (Principal Subordinate Judge) Madurai, without going into the bona fides of the requirement by the petitioners, dismissed the eviction petitions h
