Quick Summary

Yes, you can file an ejectment suit in Small Causes Court in Kolkata against a tenant for non-payment of rent and for personal bona fide requirement. This is particularly relevant if you cannot climb stairs and require the ground floor room for your own use. Consulting a local lawyer is advisable to navigate the eviction proceedings effectively.

Certainly you may get the tenant evicted from demised premises on the ground of non-payment of rent, as per law applicable, through a local prudent lawyer.
However, it is your personal decision to file or not to file a suit for eviction and/or let your tenant continue in the property or vacate it, how we can decide it?

Yes,you can initiate eviction proceedings against your tenant as your need for room is genuine on ground of personal bona-fide requirement and on ground of default in making payments of rent.
