For Appellant : Mr.C.Sundaravadivel For Respondent : Mr.R.Pandivel JUDGMENT N.PAUL VASANTHAKUMAR,J. This writ appeal is filed against the order in W.P.(MD) No.11322 of 2010, dated 25.102.2010. The appellant filed the said writ petition praying for a Mandamus to direct the respondent to sanction educational loan for B.E. (Electrical and Electronics Engineering) Course to the appellant's minor son S.Sunil Haasan. The appellant applied for educational loan for a sum of Rs.3,70,000/- out of which a sum of Rs.2,80,000/- was sanctioned. 2.The grievance of the appellant is that the mess fee payable is Rs.25,000/- per year and hostel fee payable is Rs.25,000/- per year. The said amount has not been sanctioned even though the appellant has produced the details of the fee payable to the college where the appellant is undergoing the course. 3.It is seen from the records that on 11.08.2010, the private college where the appellant is undergoing the course has issued the bona fide and expenditure certificate to the effect that the mess fee and hostel fee are payable as stated supra. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 2 4.The learned counsel for the respondent Bank opposed the said prayer before the learned single Judge by stating that the bank is bound to sanction the loan amount as fixed by the Government and the hostel fee structure as fixed by the Anna University. The same was accepted by the learned single Judge who disposed of the writ petition by order dated 25.10.2010. 5.In this writ appeal, the grievance expressed by the appellant is that unless and until the mess and hostel fee is paid, the appellant will not be permitted to undergo the course. The purpose of sanctioning educational loan is to encourage the persons who are not having source of their income to undergo their higher study course and the respondent bank having sanctioned the fee payable is also bound to sanction the mess fee and hostel fee as claimed by the appellant, which is supported by the expenditure certificate issued by the college where the appellant is undergoing the course. 6.The writ appeal is allowed and the appellant is directed to get a certificate from the college where he is undergoing the course as on today and on production of the same, the respondent bank is directed to sanction the said amount towards mess fee and hostel fee along with the loan amount already sanctioned.
