This is a legislative function and Court can only make suggestions to legislature.

Once tenancy is created, tenant can be evicted only after following the due process of law as prescribed by Rent Control Act. He cannot be arbitrarily evicted by using provisions of SARFAESI Act as that would amount to stultifying the statutory rights of protection given to tenant.
