In the meantime, learned Counsel for the first Respondent Bank, on instructions from Mr. Bhalchandra Raut, Special Recovery Officer, states that no coercive steps shall be taken in pursuance of the recovery certificates for a period of three weeks.

All contentions of the parties on merits are kept open.
