Mere pleadings of the parties is not per se evidence and in order to substantiate the facts narrated in the pleadings, evidence has to be produced, which should corroborate and prove the contentions.
Where relationship of landlord and tenant is denied by the tenant and the landlord proves his ownership over the property in dispute, the same would be sufficient to establish the relationship qua landlord and tenant and due to denial of relationship by the tenant, his default in payment of rent will also stands proved.
Mere agreement to sell does not confer any right of ownership upon a person/vendee/tenant hence the said vendee in the ejectment proceedings cannot claim protection of his possession over the property in dispute under Section 53-A of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, hence, the landlord would retain his status and the relationship between the parties shall remain to be in field and if the ejectment of the tenant is ordered and possession is taken over, his possession will be re-transferred to him, if he succeeds in his suit for specific performance.
