Taken on Board.

Heard learned counsel for the parties.

In the facts and circumstances of the case, time to

vacate the premises in question is extended till 31^st

August, 2011 and if the tenants do not vacate on or before

the said date, they will be evicted by police force.

We further make it clear that when this Court allows

the petition/appeal of the landlord or dismisses the

petition/appeal of the tenant and grant some time to vacate

the premises in question and if the tenant does not vacate

within the time granted, the tenant shall be evicted by

police force. This is a general direction we are passing

because we are coming across several cases where the tenants

are not vacating the premises in question despite granting

time by this Court or despite furnishing an undertaking to

this Court with a result that the landlord has to initiate

contempt proceedings or any other proceedings. Hence, we

CIVIL APPEAL NO. 5310 OF 2010

-2-

give a general direction that when tenant's petition/appeal

is dismissed and he is given time to vacate then on the

expiry of that time, he will be evicted by police force if

he does not vacate of his own.

If any extension of time to vacate is desired, that

application should be filed well in advance.

The

Interlocutory

Application

is

allowed

accordingly.
