CR 6241/2017(O&M) In view of nature of the order being passed, it is not felt necessary to issue notice to the respondent/landlord so as to avoid delay in the matter and to save them from unnecessary litigation expenses. In view of the above, this petition is dismissed as not pressed, however, nine months time commencing w.e.f. 01.11.2017 is granted to the petitioner-tenant for making alternative arrangement subject to his furnishing an undertaking on or before 31.10.2017 before the Court of learned Rent Controller, Patiala, that he shall hand over actual physical vacant possession of the demised premises to the respondent/ landlord by 31.7.2018. The undertaking shall also state that the entire arrears of rent, if any, at the admitted rate of Rs.2000/- per month have been cleared till 31.10.2017 and petitioner shall pay future rent @ Rs.

3000/- per month w.e.f. 1.11.2017 to 31.7.2018 by 10th of each calendar month.
