She availed a loan from the chitty amount, but later defaulted in the repayment of the same. Apparently, the petitioner had paid some of the amounts due. According to the petitioner a substantial amount of the loan was repaid partly by adjustment of the amount due to the petitioner at the time when he prized the chit, partly by recovery from the sureties and partly by way of remittance made by him. Petitioner is aggrieved by the fact that recovery from sureties is continued. He has approached the Regional Manager vide Ext.P1 representation for a comfortable rescheduling of the repayment, and possibly one time settlement as such. 2. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the KSFE, this writ petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to look into Ext.P1 representation and take a decision within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, which the petitioner shall produce before the 1st respondent within a period of WP(C) No. 31888/2007 -2- two weeks from today. The sureties may also be heard before a decision is taken. Pending such decision in the matter as aforementioned, further recovery from the sureties may be kept in abeyance. (V.GIRI, JUDGE) jg
