IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.1908 of 2011 Date of Decision : February 02, 2011. Jaspal Singh .....Petitioner versus PNB Housing Finance Limited .....Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Veneet Sharma, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner seeks quashing of the notices dated 6.8.2009 and 30.12.2010 (Annexures P-2 & P-3, respectively) issued by the respondent under Sections 13 (2) and 13 (4) of the Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 (hereinafter referred to as 'the 2002 Act'). The petitioner's grievance is that though he has been paying the monthly installments of the house loan availed by him regularly till September, 2010, however, the respondent without giving the statement of accounts or the reason as to how the amount of monthly installment has been increased, has initiated the impugned proceedings in order to harass him. C.W.P.No .1908 of 2011 2 Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and keeping in view the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in United Bank of India versus Satyawati Tondon and others, 2010 (3) RCR (C) 963, I am of the considered view that the issues raised herein-above can be effectively adjudicated upon by the Debt Recovery Tribunal in the proceedings under Section 17 of the Act. However, the claim of the petitioner to seek a copy of the complete Statement of Accounts appears to be totally justified. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of with a direction to the respondent- Company to provide the complete statement of accounts to the petitioner within a period of two weeks from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. It is further directed that no coercive step shall be taken against the petitioner for a period of two months so as to enable him to approach the Debt Recovery Tribunal. Ordered accordingly. Dasti.
