IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.3641 of 2007 GOPALJI PRASAD & ANR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2 4.2.2010 Heard learned counsel for the parties. Petitioners have shown inclination to settle loan amount taken for agricultural purpose from the Bank of India Kaligarh Branch in the District of Siwan. He however submits that since it was an agricultural loan taken for purchase of tractor the interest etc. should be calculated on simple rate based on the ratio decided in the case of Jainath Prasad vs. The State of Bihar & ors. ( 1999 (2) PLJR 227). He also submits that he is willing for reconciliation of the dispute if the proper relief is granted by the Bank as per one time settlement scheme. So far the ratio decided in the above mentioned case Jainath Prasad (supra) is concerned this is a matter for the petitioners to demonstrate before the certificate officer and the certificate officer would be well advised to take into consideration the said decision. So far as the resettlement of the account is concerned, the parties are free to get into a negotiated settlement and may resolve the issue without the intervention of the court within a time frame. With the above direction this writ application is disposed of. RPS (Ajay Kumar Tripathi,J.)
