The Rent Controller accepted the application of the petitioner and made an order of ejectment. However, on appeal the Additional District Judge, Sialkot set aside the order of ejectment. The petitioner invoked the writ jurisdiction of the High Court but his petition was dismissed by a learned Single Judge. He now seeks leave to appeal from this Court.
