Agnihotri, J. Present:- Shri B.D. Badgayan, Advocate for the petitioner. Gowri ORDER (Passed on this 25th day of November, 2011) By this petition, the petitioner seeks a direction to the respondent to accept and consider the representation dated 16-11-2011 (Annexure - P 12). According to the petitioner, the petitioner obtaihed the loan amounting to Rs.3,00,000/- on 10-1-2004 for purchase of tractor and thereafter, the petitioner deposited the monthly installments without any interruption. However, on 13-11-2011 the respondent Bank orally directed the petitioner to square up the loan account within 7 days. Thereafter, the petitioner made a representation on 16-11-2011 stating that he may be permitted to deposit the entire loan amount i.e. Rs.1,70,000/- in two installments and requested the respondent Bank to accept his representation, but when the same was not accepted the said representation was sent by post on 18-11-2011. Learned counsel prays that the respondent Bank may be directed to accept and consider the representation made by the petitioner. Though this Court may not direct the respondent Bank to accept the representation of the petitioner for settlement of loan account. However, no prejudice would be caused to the respondent Bank if it accepts the representation ofthe petitioner, asit would be open to the Bank to consider and decide same,in accordance with law and on its own merits. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. Sdl- SatishK.Agnihom Judge v
