Written Statement:

1. It is true that the defendant is the tenant under the plaintiff. The tenancy is covered by lease agreement dated 9.8.1992. The agreement’s clause 13 empowers the defendant to make constructions in the leased premises. The plaintiff therefore cannot claim any injunction against the defendant for making the construction.

2. The defendant further submits that the defendant in fact raised only a shed with asbestos to keep the empty tins and bottles. There is no justification for the plaintiff to claim for a mandatory injunction to pull down the structure which is not causing any obstruction whatsoever to anyone.

The suit is liable to be dismissed even on this count.

3. Hence, the defendant prays that the suit may be dismissed with costs.
