Supreme Court Overturns Union of India Eviction Order

Supreme Court rules Union of India's occupation of Sujan Singh Park premises is governed by Government Grants Act, not Delhi Rent Control Act.
Court sets aside High Court judgment upholding eviction order for non-payment of rent arrears.
Legal dispute involved 5 single-bedroom flats, 9 double-bedroom flats, 39 servant quarters and 25 garages in New Delhi.
Court finds Rent Controller lacked jurisdiction as relationship was governed by 1945 perpetual lease deed.
