Summary:
The petitioners challenged the appellate court’s decision under Article 199 of the Constitution, seeking restoration of the Rent Controller’s judgment. They argued that no landlord-tenant relationship existed and that the appellate court relied on oral tenancy without documentary proof. The court held that oral tenancy is legally recognized, possession indicates tenancy, and the appellate court acted within its jurisdiction. The constitutional petition was dismissed.
