The relationship of landlord and tenant is very much clear. All the sons and unmarried daughters of A are fully entitled for the succession of tenancy created by their father and it is illegal to transfer of such tenancy by S in favour of his son as he is not exclusive tenant in the given circumstances.

Only that family member who is staying with the tenant before and at the time of death of tenant is entitle to inherit the tenancy right and not all the heirs who are not staying with the tenant.
