Pawan Kumar', whereby the application filed by the petitioner under Order 7 Rule
11(a) and (d) of the CPC has been rejected.

The brief facts giving rise to the present revision petition are that the plaintiff/respondent filed a suit for eviction and arrears of rent under Section 106 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 against the defendant/petitioner, and in the plaint, the plaintiff has stated that he purchased the suit property from the erstwhile landlord. Therefore, he has become the landlord of the tenanted premises, and after serving a notice of 15 days, he terminated the tenancy of the defendant/petitioner. However, the defendant/petitioner failed to vacate the tenanted premises and hand over possession to the plaintiff/respondent; therefore, the

of rent.
3. In the said suit, after service, the defendant/petitioner filed an application under Order 7 Rule 11 of the CPC, stating inter alia that the plaint does not disclose any valid cause of action and is liable to be rejected under Order 7 Rule 11(a) of CPC. He further submitted that the present suit is barred under Order 23 Rule 1 of the CPC, in view of the bar contained under Order 23 Rule 1(4) (b), since the previous suit had been withdrawn without seeking leave as referred to in Order 23 Rule 1(3) of the CPC, the present suit is liable to be rejected under the provisions of Order 7 Rule
11(d) of the CPC.
4. Thereafter, the plaintiff/respondent opposed the said application by filing a reply, wherein it was stated that the suit is neither barred by law nor filed without disclosing a cause of action. It was further stated that since the plaintiff/respondent had purchased the suit property, he had served a fresh notice under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, and on account of a fresh cause of action, the present suit has been filed; he accordingly prayed for the dismissal of the said application filed
under Order 7 Rule 11 of the CPC.
5. After hearing the arguments of the respective parties, the learned Trial Court, vide the impugned order dated 29.07.2024, rejected the said application filed under Order 7 Rule 11 of the CPC. Aggrieved by the same, the present revision petition has
been filed.
6. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the learned Court below erred in rejecting the application without appreciating
