VPH IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION No. 173 OF 2006 Mr. Dinkar Patil Petitioner Vs. The Sangli Miraj & Kupwad Mun. Corporation & Ors. Respondents Ms. Dipti Wadkar i/b Sachindra B. Shetye, for the Petitioner. Mr. G. H. Keluskar, for respondent No.1. Mr. N. H. Murjeej i/b M/s. K. Aghor & Co. for the Respondent No.6. CORAM : BILAL NAZKI, AND A. P. BHANGALE, JJ. DATE : APRIL 16, 2008. PC :- . This petition appears to have been filed not under the motive of public interest but for some personal reasons, may be a result of some rivalry between the petitioner and those who are running respondent No.2 bank. The petitioner wants that respondent No. 1 should not deposit any money in the respondent No. 2 bank, without laying any basis in the Writ Petition, and only asserts that the bank was at the verge of collapse and therefore the public money was likely to be wasted. Respondent No. 6 is - 2 - Reserve Bank of India, who have filed counter affidavit. In this counter all allegations levelled against the respondent No.2 have been denied. One of the allegations was that the respondent No.2 bank has taken loan from the Reserve Bank of India and is not even in a position to pay instalments or interest thereon. The Reserve Bank of India categorically stated that respondent No.2 has not taken any loan from the Reserve Bank of India and as such there is no question of payment of instalments. In the affidavit it is also stated that they are conducting periodical inspection of the bank and if encessary supervisery instructions would be given. In this view of the matter, petition is dismissed. Sd/- [ BILAL NAZKI, J. ] Sd/- [ A. P.BHANGALE, J.]
