    A. 1, 2 and 3

    Section 8(1)(b) makes the Tribunal the appellate authority over orders of the Rent Controller, Section 8(2) gives it power to punish for contempt of itself as if it were a High Court, and Section 7(2) makes the Rent Controller subordinate to the Tribunal. All three statements are correct.

  2. Question 2 · Chhattisgarh Local Laws Practice Set 1

    Under Section 1(2) of the Chhattisgarh Rent Control Act, 2011, the Act extends in the first instance to:

    1. A. the whole of the State of Chhattisgarh, including all rural areas
    2. B. the Raipur Municipal Corporation area and the adjoining Nagar Panchayats
    3. C. the Municipal areas comprising the District Headquarters in the State
    4. D. every Municipal Corporation area in the State having a population above one lakh
    Show the answer

    C. the Municipal areas comprising the District Headquarters in the State

    Section 1(2) extends the Act in the first instance to the Municipal areas comprising the District Headquarters, and later to such other Municipal areas or other areas as the State Government may notify. It did not begin as a State-wide law.

  3. Question 3 · Chhattisgarh Local Laws Practice Set 1

    Consider the following statements about a landlord's rights under Schedule 2 to the Chhattisgarh Rent Control Act, 2011: 1. He may demand and receive a security deposit not exceeding three months' rent. 2. The agreed annual increment in rent cannot exceed 5% where the monthly rent is Rs. 2,000 or less, and 10% in other cases. 3. He may inspect the accommodation at any time of the day or night without prior appointment. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

    1. A. 2 and 3 only
    2. B. 1, 2 and 3
    3. C. 1 only
    4. D. 1 and 2 only
    Show the answer

    D. 1 and 2 only

    Items 2 and 4 of Schedule 2 cap the security deposit at three months' rent and the annual increment at 5% (monthly rent Rs. 2,000 or less) or 10% (other cases). Item 6 allows inspection only during daytime, with prior appointment and in the presence of the tenant or an adult male member of his family, so statement 3 is wrong.

  4. Question 4 · Chhattisgarh Local Laws Practice Set 1

    Which of the following is NOT a ground on which a second appeal lies under Section 44(3) of the Chhattisgarh Land Revenue Code, 1959, as substituted in 2022?

    1. A. The original order was varied or reversed in first appeal otherwise than in a matter of costs
    2. B. The order has failed to determine some material issue of law or usage having the force of law
    3. C. There was a substantial error in the procedure prescribed by the Code that may have affected the merits
    4. D. The first appellate order affirmed the original order on a pure question of fact
    Show the answer

    D. The first appellate order affirmed the original order on a pure question of fact

    Section 44(3) allows a second appeal only where the original order was varied or reversed in first appeal otherwise than as to costs, the order is contrary to law or usage having the force of law, it failed to determine a material issue of law or usage, or there was a substantial error or defect in the prescribed procedure that may have produced an error on the merits. Affirmance on a pure question of fact is not a ground.

  5. Question 5 · Chhattisgarh Local Laws Practice Set 1

    From the date the Rent Control Tribunal becomes functional, Section 6(5) of the Chhattisgarh Rent Control Act, 2011, as amended in 2015, excludes the jurisdiction of all courts over matters within the Tribunal's jurisdiction, except that of:

    1. A. the Supreme Court under Article 136 only, the writ jurisdiction of the High Courts being wholly excluded
    2. B. the Supreme Court under Article 136 and the High Courts under Articles 226 and 227
    3. C. the High Courts under Article 227 and the District Courts in their appellate jurisdiction
    4. D. the Supreme Court under Article 32 and the High Courts under Article 226 alone
    Show the answer

    B. the Supreme Court under Article 136 and the High Courts under Articles 226 and 227

    As enacted, Section 6(5) saved only the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court under Article 136. The Chhattisgarh Rent Control (Amendment) Act, 2015 (No. 5 of 2016) inserted the words 'and High Courts under Articles 226 and 227', so both are now saved.
