Judgment text as reported

Dr. SUNIL ANAND HOTWANI VS ABDUL WAKEEL S.16---arrears of rent---Expression "summary inquiry"---Scope---When a case for eviction of a tenant is filed, the Rent Controller is required to determine the arrears of rent payable by the tenant upon an application filed by the landlord---Rent Controller is required to conduct a summary inquiry and then direct the tenant to deposit the specified arrears of rent within a specified period---additionally, the Rent Controller is also required to direct the tenant to deposit the monthly rent regularly on or before the tenth day of each month until the final disposal of the case---Phrase "summary inquiry" used in S.16 holds significance as it indicates that the Rent Controller, in order to issue a tentative rent order under the section, is required to examine only the material presented before him, without conducting an in-depth inquiry.
