(Description of Non-Payment Period): Under Section 19(3) of the Punjab Tenancy Act, 2009, it is mandatory for the landlord to clearly state the details of the non-payment period against the tenant, including the date and duration. If the landlord has not provided these details, he cannot subsequently change it- 2024 C L C 1712 |
فیصلے کے اہم نکات درج ذیل ہیں:
1. عدم ادائیگی کی مدت کی وضاحت: پنجاب کرائے داری قانون 2009 کے سیکشن 19(3) کے تحت، مالک مکان کے لیے ضروری ہے کہ وہ کرایہ دار کے خلاف عدم ادائیگی کے دوران کی تفصیلات واضح طور پر بیان کرے، بشمول تاریخ اور مدت۔ اگر مالک مکان نے یہ تفصیلات فراہم نہیں کیں، تو وہ بعد میں اس میں تبدیلی یا بہتری نہیں کر سکتا۔
2. منازعت کی بنیاد: عدالت نے یہ فیصلہ کیا کہ اگر کرایہ دار اور مالک مکان کے درمیان تعلقات کشیدہ ہوں تو یہ اخراج کی درخواست کی جائز وجہ نہیں ہو سکتی۔ اس طرح کے وجوہات پر اخراج کا حکم جاری کرنا عدالت کے دائرہ اختیار سے تجاوز ہوگا۔
3. مفصل معاہدہ: اگر کرایہ داری کے معاہدے میں 10 سال کی مدت شامل ہو تو اس کا مطلب ہے کہ کرایہ دار کا حق ہے کہ وہ اس مدت کے دوران اخراج سے محفوظ رہے، جب تک کہ اس نے معاہدہ یا قانون کی خلاف ورزی نہ کی ہو۔
4. مختصر بیان کا مفہوم: "مختصر بیان" کا مطلب ہے کہ مقدمہ میں متعلقہ حقائق کو سادہ اور واضح طور پر بیان کیا جائے تاکہ عدالت کی توجہ صرف اہم مسائل پر مرکوز ہو۔ یہ بیان اس بات کو آسان بناتا ہے کہ عدالت صرف تنازعے کے اہم پہلوؤں پر فیصلہ کرے۔
5. تجارتی معاہدات کی اہمیت: عدالت نے یہ بھی کہا کہ اگر کرایہ دار کو غیر قانونی طور پر بے دخل کیا گیا، تو اس سے تجارتی معاہدات اور سرمایہ کاری کے بارے میں عوامی اعتماد کو نقصان پہنچے گا، جو کہ عدالتوں کی ذمہ داری ہے کہ وہ اس اعتماد کو برقرار رکھیں۔

Before Anwaar Hussain, J
MAQSOOD AHMAD----Petitioner
Versus
ADDITIONAL DISTRICT JUDGE, FAISALABAD and 2 others----Respondents
Writ Petition No.38539 of 2023, heard on 14th May, 2024.
(a) Punjab Rented Premises Act (VII of 2009)---
----Ss.15 & 19(3)---Eviction of Tenant on the ground of default in payment of rent---Improvement in evidence qua period of default---Effect---Failure of the landlord to give concise statement under S.19(3) of the Punjab Rented Premises Act, 2009 ('Act, 2009') qua period of default---Effect---Eviction order on the basis of alien/innovative ground of strained and hostile relationship between the landlord and tenant owing to eviction proceedings---Legality---Contention of the petitioner was that rented premises was a vacant plot, which was developed into a marquee with certainty that tenancy would exist for the fixed period of 10 years and he would not be evicted except in accordance with tenancy agreement or the Act, 2009---Validity---Mandate of S.19(3) of the Act, 2009 was that it was obligatory for the landlord to narrate all the relevant and necessary details of default by elaborating the same with precision (in terms of the date of default and total period of default) and if he failed to do so, he could not be allowed to improve upon the same through the evidence---Section 15 of the Act, 2009 envisaged grounds of eviction and the fact that on account of litigation between the parties, relationship of landlord and tenant had become strained, was not a valid ground to seek eviction and if such like grounds for eviction were allowed to be transplanted that would amount to the Courts traversing beyond their domain of statutory adherence, hence, Appellate Court had travelled beyond the legislative wisdom while passing the eviction order---Specific insertion of duration of 10 years, as a tenancy period, revealed the intention of the parties that the tenancy was for fixed period, that is long term, with certainty that landlord would get rent during the said long term tenancy period and the tenant would get return on his investment, therefore, the premature eviction of the tenant in the absence of any contractual or statutory violation (default) would not only engender injustice, being detrimental to the commercial interest of the petitioner, but would also undermine the public trust in investment/commercial contracts and their enforcement by the Courts which could not be allowed---Constitutional petition of the tenant was allowed and that of the landlord was dismissed accordingly.
Abdul Ghani through L.Rs. v. Messrs Caltex Oil Pakistan Limited 2010 SCMR 771 rel.
(b) Punjab Rented Premises Act (VII of 2009)---
----S.19(3)---Civil Procedure Code (V of 1908), O.VI, R.2---Term 'concise statement' mentioned in S.19(3) of the Punjab Rented Premises Act, 2009---Meaning and purpose---Term "concise statement" has not been defined by the Punjab Rented Premises Act, 2009 ('the Act') however, O.VI, R.2, C.P.C., refers to the same---In common legal parlance, concise statement indicates reciting of facts with precision that forms basis of a claim and/or underlies the accrual of cause of action---Underlying purpose is to simplify the key issues in dispute, therefore, the concise statement must contain enough details of the dispute to steer the court's focus only to the relevant issues making it easier for it to adjudicate.
