A petition for eviction was filed by Dev Dutt Bissa, inter alia, seeking eviction of the petitioner - tenant from the shop on the ground of default in payment of rent and reasonable and bona fide requirement; the bona fide requirement indicated in the petition pertained to the fact that the landlord and his wife were quite old and were mostly not keeping well and on account of suffering it was difficult for them to climb the stair to go up to their residence on first floor and, therefore, the shop which was just below the residence was required for his use and occupation so that essential facilities be arranged and the landlord and his wife can live peacefully in their old age.
