On the Ist of May 1958 two documents were executed by Shri. Bhagwan in favour of the vendors undertaking to reconvey the Ice Factory and the Iron Foundry to the vendors if they paid the money within a certain specified period. Shri tri Bhawan treated the leases granted in favour of Ram Charosey Lal and Kailash Shankar to be manufacturing leases and he, therefore, served a six months' notice for ejectment upon them which was received on the 28th of August 1962. Six months would have expired in February 1963. In the meantime Rain Bharosey Lal and Kailash Shankar filed suit No. 155 of 1962 in the court of the Civil Judge, Agra, on the 6th December 1962.
