As the bank authority is not allowing t he present writ petitioners to withdraw the rest amount of Rs.1 lakh with intere st accrued thereon in the absence of any specific order from this court, they ha ve filed this petition seeking a direction to allow them to withdraw the said am ount with interest accrued thereon. 4.
