Date: 28.10.2025.
Proceedings through hybrid mode Present:
Shri Hitesh Mishra, Counsel for the Applicant
Shri Pramod Kumar, Counsel for the Respondent Bank/FI
This Misc. Application has been moved stating that the counsel for the respondent bank made a statement on 15.05.2025 that the account has been settled. It is further submitted that since the applicant’s counsel was not aware about the matter, therefore, the averment made by the counsel for the respondent was not countered. All the allegations have been made against the counsel for the respondent bank for making a statement about the settlement of the matter, however, in Para no. 8 gives a totally different story and aspect of the matter wherein the applicant is relying upon on arbitration clause. The order dated 15.05.2025 is crisp and clear and it was the applicant’s counsel who has withdrawn the matter as settled, therefore, this Misc. Application is nothing, but a abuse of process of law.
Accordingly, this Misc. Application stands dismissed File be consigned to record, as per rules. Copy of order be uploaded on website.
