CORAM:HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR GARG
Present: Mr. Ramesh Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. A.K Kalsy, Advocate for respondent No.1.
Rakesh Kumar Garg, J. (Oral)
The petitioner, who moved an application for being impleaded as respondent under Order 1 Rule 10 CPC in the eviction petition filed by respondent No.1 seeking ejectment of respondent No.2, has approached this Court under Article 227 of the Constitution of India assailing the order dated 19.7.2012 of the Rent Controller, Ludhiana, vide which her aforesaid application for impleadment has been dismissed on the ground that in the proceedings under the Rent Act, question of title cannot be decided.
Counsel for the petitioner has vehemently argued that since the petitioner has purchased the property vide registered sale deed dated 17.4.1989, she has a right to be impleaded in the eviction proceedings since respondent No.1 is not the owner of the premises in dispute.
However, counsel for respondent No.1 has produced before this Court the order dated 3.10.2012 passed in CR No.5856 of 2012 titled as “Kulwant Kaur vs. Rehumdin & ors., wherein similar application filed by the petitioner on the basis of the same sale deed dated 17.4.1989 was rejected.
Not only this, learned counsel representing respondent No.1
