when tennat govt govt accommodation he ceased t be needy. further refusal to accept qtr is his economic consideration. If he gets Qtr and all his family members who reside there and are Govt/PSU employees will loose HRA and he may be paying much less to you. Further refusal to accept Qtr one employee is liable for forefeiture of HRA if you complaint to Deptt with copy of CAG.

Andrew,

The tenant refusing to accept the government quarters allotted to him cannot be a ground/reason for an eviction suit /petition against him. You have to approach the court with genuine and valid reasons to evict him, do not be misguided and carried away by some mischief monger advocates and lose your valuable time and money on the subject.
