3.When the matter came up for hearing today, the learned counsel for the respondents stated that during the course of inspection by the officers, it came to light that the name board of one Praveen Enterprises was found in the premises which is a scrap dealing concern. She further submitted that since the property was given to the petitioner, there is no necessity for the said name Board to be placed on the premises, which implies that it has been sublet to the said Enterprises by the petitioner.

4.In response, the learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner has not sublet the premises to anyone. He would submit that the matter has already been seized by the Debts Recovery Tribunal and the bank has already taken symbolic possession of the property and in view of the matter, the learned counsel for the petitioner only seeks to safeguard of the petitioner's possession alone in the premises by issuing an appropriate direction. He further submitted that the said name Board will be removed by the petitioner in the said premises.

¶14

5.Considering the rival submissions made on both sides and also taking into account, the undertaking given by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the name board of Praveen Enterprises would be removed from the premises and the petitioner will not sublet the premises to any kind of transaction, there will be a direction to the respondents not to evict the petitioner from the premises in question. However, the said order will not preclude the Debts Recovery Tribunal or any other authority to proceed in accordance with law as it is stated that symbolic possession has been taken by the DRT.
