IN THE COURT OF THE RENT CONTROLLER, __________
(the Civil Judge (Junior Division) exercising the powers of a Rent Controller under the East Punjab Urban Rent Restriction Act, 1949)

Rent Petition No. ______________ of 20______
(number to be allotted by the Registry on institution)

Jurisdiction for which this petition is drawn: __________

READ THIS BEFORE THE PETITION IS SIGNED, SWORN OR PRESENTED. This petition is drawn for __________. Exactly one of the two location lines above must have printed - the Punjab line for a Punjab property, the Chandigarh line for a property in the Union Territory. If both printed, or if neither did, the wrong location box was filled in on the form, the wrong set of local paragraphs has printed below, and this petition is wrong on its face. Four further checks, each of which the form cannot make for you, and every one of which has sunk a real petition:

(a) PUNJAB AND THE DATE OF LETTING. If the Punjab line printed, paragraph 4 must show a date of letting BEFORE 30.11.2013, and paragraph 5-B must have printed. A Punjab letting on or after 30.11.2013 is not governed by this Act at all: it is governed by the Punjab Rent Act, 1995, the remedy is an application under sub-section (2) of section 20 in the Form specified in Schedule XII, and this is the wrong document for it. For a property in the Union Territory the date of letting makes no difference, because the 1949 Act applies there whenever the premises were let.

(b) AT LEAST ONE GROUND, WITH ITS PARTICULARS. Paragraph 8 names the principal ground at its head. Below that head there must appear at least one block of particulars, and one of those blocks must be the block for the ground so named. A paragraph 8 that names a ground and gives no particulars pleads nothing: it will be returned at the counter or dismissed at the threshold.

(c) SECTION 13-A, THE CLASS OF BUILDING, AND THE HEAD OF THE PETITION. If paragraph 1-A has printed, then paragraph 3 must describe the demised premises as a residential building or as a scheduled building, and the head of this petition must name section 13-A read with section 18-A. Section 13-A gives a specified landlord immediate possession of those two classes of building and of nothing else. If paragraph 3 says a non-residential building or rented land, take out the specified-landlord answers and plead bona fide personal necessity under sub-section (3) of section 13 instead. Conversely, if the head of this petition names section 13-A and paragraph 1-A has not printed, the specified-landlord questions were left blank and the petition names a provision it does not plead.

(d) ORAL OR WRITTEN. If paragraph 4 describes the tenancy as oral and then also gives the date of a written instrument, one of those two answers is wrong. Fix it before anybody swears the affidavit.

IN THE MATTER OF:

... PETITIONER (LANDLORD)

VERSUS

... RESPONDENT (TENANT)

RESPECTFULLY SHOWETH:

1. 5. NO EXEMPTION FROM THE ACT, AND NO CIVIL COURT. That no notification issued under section 3 of the Act exempts the demised premises from the operation of the Act, and the demised premises are governed by it. By sub-section (1) of section 13 of the Act a tenant in possession of a building or rented land shall not be evicted therefrom except in accordance with the provisions of that section; the jurisdiction of the civil court to order the eviction of the Respondent is accordingly excluded, and this petition is maintainable before this Hon'ble Court alone.

1. 10. LIMITATION. That this petition is within time. The grounds pleaded subsist as on the date of its presentation, the default and the occupation complained of are continuing wrongs, and the money claim made in the prayer is confined to arrears of rent falling due within three years preceding the date of this petition, together with rent and damages for use and occupation accruing thereafter.

PRAYER

It is therefore most respectfully prayed that this Hon'ble Court may graciously be pleased to:

(a) pass an order under the Act directing the Respondent to put the Petitioner in vacant, peaceful and physical possession of the demised premises described in the Schedule below, by ejecting therefrom the Respondent and every person claiming through or under him, together with his belongings;

(c) award to the Petitioner the costs of and incidental to these proceedings, including counsel's fee; and

(d) grant such further or other relief as the nature and circumstances of the case may require and as this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper in the interest of justice.

AND FOR THIS ACT OF KINDNESS THE PETITIONER SHALL, AS IN DUTY BOUND, EVER PRAY.

SCHEDULE
THE DEMISED PREMISES

AFFIDAVIT

1. 3. That the annexures filed with the petition are true copies of their respective originals, which are in my possession and will be produced before this Hon'ble Court when required.
