deleted. Furthermore, this court in the case of State of Rajasthan Vs. Shri Sunder Lal (supra) considered the import of the 3 months’ notice",,,,

period incorporated in the lease deed and held that the said condition does not give rise to an inference that the period of lease deed would be,,,,

extended for the said term unilaterally, unconditionally and without consent of the lessor.",,,,

In view of this settled legal position, this court is of the firm opinion that the orders under challenge do not stand to scrutiny and cannot be sustained as",,,,

petitions are also disposed of.,,,,

No order as to costs.,,,,
