My word to word version: In case of subleasing, the lessee shall now itself convey the lessor of the claims due to him against the sublessee in addition to the right of lien up to the extent of the claims of the lessor.
To be very honest....i am totally confused here. Can someone please start with a rough translation of what's actually happening?
