According to the petitioner, though she had approached the respondents a number of times, they have not settled the accounts till date. Therefore, the petitioner seeks appropriate directions for a consideration of her request. 2. Advocate Sri.Nagaraj Narayanan, who appears for the third respondent Bank, submits that the One Time Settlement Scheme is no longer in force and if the petitioner approaches the third respondent Bank with a representation, the question as to whether waiver of interest could be granted to the petitioner would be considered. The counsel for the petitioner submits that Ext.P3 representation is already pending before the third respondent. The counsel for the third respondent has no objection to Ext.P3 being directed to be considered. WPC.24474/2010 : 2 : In the above circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of directing the third respondent to consider the grievances of the petitioner set out in Ext.P3 representation in accordance with law and pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Exts.P1, P2, P4 and P5 are representations submitted by the petitioner to respondents 1, 2, 4 and 5 respectively. Therefore, there shall be a further direction to respondents 1, 2, 4 and 5 to consider the representations submitted by the petitioner and to pass appropriate orders thereon in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the respective respondents for compliance. Sd/- (K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JUDGE) aks // True Copy // P.A. To Judge
