Dear sir,
A petitioner filed a case u/s 14(1)(e) read with Section 25-B of Delhi Rent Control Act. But the respondent have information in certified form that the petitioner is not an owner of the said property and he is also a trespasser. Hence, the respondent filed an application with all certified proofs under section 151 cpc. In the meanwhile the period of 15 days to file a leave to defend has expired.
So, kindly tell me is it necessary to file a leave to defend or not if the petitioner is not an owner/ landlord of the property?
Kindly reply me at the earliest.
