JUDGMENT 1. - This second appeal under Section 100 CPC has been filed against the judgment and decree dated 20.8.2004 passed by Additional District Judge, Ramganjmandi Distt. Kota in Civil Appeal No. 1/2002 whereby the judgment and decree dated 20.4.2001 passed by Civil Judge (L.D.) Ramganjmandi in Civil Suit No. 33/1994 for permanent injunction has been reversed by the appellate court and the suit has been dismissed. 2. The brief facts of the case are that plaintiff appellant filed a suit for permanent injunction against the defendant on the ground that he is the tenant in the disputed shop and he is paying regular rent to the defendant, he cannot be evicted from the premises without due process of law. Per contra, the contention of the respondent before the court below was that he is only a licencee and court below has decreed the suit that the appellant should not be evicted from the premises without due process of law. The findings have been reversed by the appellate court and it was held that the appellant is only a trespasser in the property, hence this appeal. 3. The contention of the appellant is that appellate court has wrongly reversed the findings of court below. It was amply proved by the evidence of the plaintiff that he is tenant in the premises, the appellate court has misread the evidence and the findings are per verse.Per contra, the contention of the respondent is that there is no perversity in the judgment and decree under appeal. 4. Heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the judgments and decree under appeal. 5. The appellate court has rightly held that PW/1 Mangilal has stated that he has obtained rent receipts, he used to enter the rent in his Khata Bahi and diary but none of the documents have been produced before the court below and first appellate court has rightly held that trial court has not appreciated the evidence of plaintiff in right perspective. The burden was on the appellant to prove that he is tenant in the premises, he was having documents for the same which has not been produced, the appellate court has taken an adverse inference against the appellant. Other witnesses have also been considered by the first appellate court, hence there is no misreading or perversity in the findings of the appellate court.
Other witnesses have also been considered by the first appellate court, hence there is no misreading or perversity in the findings of the appellate court. The appellate court has also held that the appellant remained miserably failed to prove the fact that he is the tenant in the premises. Appellant himself has admitted that he has taken the premises from respondent.
