Section 28:
Recovery of possession by manager of a hotel or the owner of a lodging house.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Act, a manager of a hotel or owner of a lodging
house shall be entitled to recover possession of the accommodation provided by him on obtaining a
certificate from the Controller certifying--
(a) that the lodger has been guilty of conduct which is a nuisance or which causes annoyance to
any adjoining or neighbouring lodger;
(b) that the accommodation is reasonably and bona fide required by the owner of the hotel or
lodging house, as the case may be, either for his own occupation or for the occupation of any person
for whose benefit the accommodation is held, or any other cause which may be deemed satisfactory
by the Controller;
(c) that the lodger has failed to vacate the accommodation on the termination of the period of the
agreement in respect thereof;
(d) that the lodger has done any act which is inconsistent with the purpose for which the
accommodation was given to him or which is likely to affect adversely or substantially the owner's
interest therein;
(e) that the lodger has failed to pay the rent due from him.
